Happy Mothers’ Day!
Hopefully all the mommies out there are being pampered like they deserve: breakfast in bed, pedicures, and lots of hugs. My amazing mommy received a special breakfast (which I’ll write about tomorrow). But because I was working on her breakfast, my own had to be quick and simple.

Now it’s time for another installment of “Strange things I see when I Run.” I almost stepped on this guy yesterday (well, not him, but his look-alike).
And then, later, I came across a hissing squirrel. Did you know squirrels can talk? I didn’t! Nothing as strange as Scary Spandex Man, but if I never see him again, I think I’ll be okay!
Michelle,
Awwwwwww I am so excited/honored/happy you tried them 🙂 🙂
Ohhhh, your breakfast looks divine!! You already know that I loooooooove me some PB. My fav is the grind-your-own stuff. It tastes so fresh because of it’s 100% pure peanutty goodness. 🙂
I will agree. I definitely hug peanut butter for hug a fat month. It’s my favorite fat.
My favorite peanut butter is also the Whole Foods 365 lightly salted… HEAVEN.
Mother’s Day here involved going to the 1st farmer’s market of the year, working, going out for dinner at my cousin’s house, and watching playoff hockey! WOO!
And my favourite peanut butter is our store brand old fashioned variety – just peanuts with a little bit of salt. Delicious!
This just proves that it really IS “all relative”: you call your breakfast ‘quick and simple,’ but it likely appears deliciously gourmet to most. Way to playfully dispel the fat-makes-fat myth.
my favorite peanutbutter is actually trader joes brand of organic, unsalted, unswtned crunchy pb!
i can eat wayyy to much of that though!
new research just came out that showed adding nuts to your diet can help lower cholesterol! http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703880304575236521172979224.html
love plant fats!
Hissing squirrel? Wow, no haven’t seen that one..maybe that’s specific to Texas squirrels? My Squirrelly here is more a quiet, meaningful stare kind of squirrel as in communicating with her eyes, “why didn’t you bring me chocolate covered marzipan? And while you’re at it, how ’bout some corn chips?” Sometimes, when sounding an alarm they say something like “nuk nuk nuk”..
Yes, I did know squirrels could talk! But I didn’t know until a couple years ago. I wouldn’t describe it as hissing, though! More like a . . . hoarse chirp?
