We are getting back into the routine of things at our house after a nice break for Christmas. My sister had horseback riding lessons this morning, so I had the house to myself while I got ready for work.
For breakfast I made oatmeal with a banana (half mixed in, half on top) and a Tbsp. of sunbutter. This was my first time trying sunbutter, and I loved it! Thanks to VeggieGirl for the recommendation.
I ate this bowl while watching a little I Love Lucy.
For lunch I had a turkey sandwich with soy cheese on whole wheat. I microwaved my sandwich to melt the cheese, of course.
After work I went to Borders because I have a gift card but couldn’t decide what to get, so I just came home. Will have to think about it some more. Meanwhile my parents and sister had been to Lowe’s and Home Depot to get six panel doors for the inside of our house (my parents’ Christmas present for each other). Nice.
For an afternoon snack I had Fage with honey and a handful of mixed nuts. I picked my favorites out of the jar – cashews and macadamia nuts.
Dinner was a quick stir fry – the usual of cashew chicken with rice and veggies. I also had a roll (and seconds on the stir fry).
Tonight my aunt and uncle are coming over to play some board games. My dad is trying to finish the doors before they get here. Nothing like a little motivation, right?
As for myself, I need to put my newly washed sheets on my bed. Tomorrow’s an early day – church in the morning, and I’m not sure how late we’ll be up tonight, so I need to be prepared.
TTFN.
Mmm that sunbutter really does look good. Maybe that will be my next adventure in the world of nut butters
Hope you had fun tonight, and enjoy church in the morning!
is sunbutter made from sunflower seeds? how does it taste compared to regular PB?

Sophia ~ Yes Sunbutter is made from sunflower seeds. The texture is pretty much the same as pb – it’s smooth (although the kind I bought has flax seeds in it), but it tastes saltier, kind of like sunflower seeds. I think I might like it better than almond butter!
