There are plenty of things that can change your BG level - and remember too that different foods digest at different speeds. If you eat ice cream its fat content is likely to make it digest slower, so you may notice it peaks later than you'd expect. If you eat something like a banana or sweets you'll see them peak quite soon because they are fast acting foods.
Some exercise - especially in short sharp bursts - actually puts your BG *up*, so be careful of that! A good 30 minute paced walk is better than a quick load of rough exercise.
It's great that you're testing your reaction to foods  Are you on meds?
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you do know that eating high carb foods is putting strain on your pancreas - even if you appear to be coping well - and can make a difference of years (apparently) between pre-diabetic and fully diabetic...
... ok I'll walk out backwards now lol.
(I've assumed you're pre-diabetic, and now that I've re-read this I really don't know why. Am I wrong?)
Ah! Now I know why I assumed pre-diabetes - because this is in the pre-D forum. LOL. Sorry 'bout that.
