I was playing with my favorite creamy nut butter in the kitchen all morning and am excited about the progress I made on my assignment. I should be able to post a link to this particular project on Monday, so stay tuned!
Since I was up to my elbows in peanut butter, you better believe I ate quite a few peanut butter fingers before finally realizing the best way to deal with my peanut butter cravings was to actually sit down to a legit peanut butter-heavy snack!
I topped a whole wheat sandwich thin with peanut butter, honey, banana slices and cinnamon. So good!
It held me over until lunchtime when I took a break to enjoy my midday meal.
Lunch
Lunch today included a strawberry smoothie bowl that I topped with a packet of Kay’s Naturals French vanilla protein cereal that I purchased through Netrition.com.
The smoothie included:
- 1 c. frozen strawberries
- 1 c. almond milk
- 1 scoop strawberry protein powder
- 1 pinch xanthan gum
Back to playin’ with peanut butter!

Ahaha, two smoothies already today? You make us smoothie-lovers proud!!
That snack is exactly the breakfast I used to eat in the school cafeteria!! I love it because the ingredients are available in most cafeteria situations and its yummy and filling and healthy–all-around dependable. People used to tease me for the honey and cinnamon (I also added flax seeds) but it really does make the sandwich soo yummy!!
I love that you’ve already had your second smoothie today. Can’t wait to hear about your peanut butter project!
I love that you got to work with peanut butter all day! I can’t wait to hear about the project! 🙂 I love the pink smoothie!
Sounds like you are in heaven with all that peanut butter! Can’t wait to hear about the project!
That pink smoothie topped with cereal is very inviting looking 🙂 hehehe!
Speaking of peanut butter…Have you tried Clusterfluffs? It’s a new B&J ice cream flavor (PB ice cream with peanut butter swirls, among other delicious ingredients!)
You’re encouraging me to try smoothies again. In the past, I’ve tended to shy away from them…I guess I like to eat my calories as opposed to drink them whenever possible, hahah. But your smoothies always look so good!
And obviously, the peanut butter/banana sandwich thin obviously looks delicious…that goes without saying. 🙂
That sounds delicious! What a fun freelance project! 🙂
PS I don’t know whether it’s just my computer but I can’t view your PB full pics!
booo i cnt see the pics! but the smoothie SOUNDS GOOD!
I wish I could see your pics, but I’m sure they will be up later after you are finished making the website move. Sounds good 🙂
I can’t see the pics either.. but either way:
smoothies = love
Can’t wait to see what your PB project is. Does Sadie like Peanut Butter as much as you? Peanut Butter Paws, haha.
I utilized a comment from a previous post (and some personal creativity) to make a smoothie this morning! It consisted of:
Strawberry milk
Frozen strawberries
Fresh strawberries
4 ice cubes
Strawberry preserves
It was so yummy! Tomorrow I’ll sneak in some spinach or vanilla protein powder (or both)!
PB, honey, and bananas are one of my favorite open face sandwiches. So yum! Also, I really need to try making one of your smoothies soon.
That sounds like the best day time activity – peanut butter playtime in the kitchen. Yummmm. Can’t wait to read about your creations. And I’m glad the blog’s back in action!
What did you think of the Kay’s Naturals French vanilla protein cereal?
Ooooh can’t wait to find out what your project is!!! 😀
PB Fingers are the best!! I hope you’re enjoying your PB playtime!
haha great to hear u’re up to ur elbows in PB!! can’t wait to see what u’re up to with this project!
I’m quit curious as to what your experiment was! Looking forward to it!
PS: The PB, banana, honey, cinnamon sandwich is my favorite.
I need to try some of your smoothie creations…they look fantabulous! 🙂 Yay for PB all day, I’m jealous!
MMmmm peanut butter, I think I could eat my body weight in the stuff in someone left me alone with it haha
Can’t wait to see your new project! That strawberry smoothie is making me hungry!
Can’t wait to see what your freelance project is! I’m wondering how you hear about these neat opportunities? Do companies just email you asking you to do them?
haha that always happens to me! I’m standing around eating a bit of this, a bit of that–until I think to myself “why don’t I just eat a meal with this?!” 😛
Hey there,
I enjoy your blog – thanks for keeping it up! And full-time…wow! Nice work. You are a very good writer.
I’m going to risk giving one suggestion – when I’ve missed several days of posts and want to look pages back, the “next page/previous page” thing always messes me up. I always go the wrong way! I wonder if that happens to other readers? I’d have to say that I prefer the “older posts/newer posts” buttons because I know if I’ll be reading “older” or “newer” posts. Not earth-shattering but thought I’d put it out there. :0)
LG
You lucky girl! I would gladly sit in my kitchen any day and play with PB!!! Can’t wait to see the new concoctions!
I’m totally jealous of your peanut butter-filled freelance assignment! I’m enjoying a PB sandwich right now!
I would love to play with PB for my job 😉 Can’t wait to see what you come up with!
Making overnight oats in a peanut butter jar tomorrow for the first time, very excited!! 🙂
Playing with PB = my dream job. I am now living vicariously through you!
If my job incorporated peanut butter in any way shape or form… I would be the happiest employee in the nation.
Peanut butter filled freelance project–sign me up!
You CAN’T go wrong with peanut butter! I’d DIE without it 😉
