Round One Nut Butter Review

I had great day yesterday with my sweet little niece! After picking her up from school we headed back to mi casa to relax for a while and then pack up a lunch to take to the park. I had a big ole salad...
It contained

• spinach
• lettuce
• grilled pork
• tomato
• cucumber
• red peppers
• sweet potato
• last of the hummus :(

I wasn't satisfied after this monster!

The little one...
My niece and I (she was laughing to hard to do the lips)...
My sweet things playing...
Altogether...
After the park we headed to a new doc. to talk about what had has been going on with me. It took forever there (90 min.) but it was worth it because I really liked the doc. He was unlike any I have ever been to and I will just leave it at that :). He told me to come back in the morning to get blood drawn so he could run some allergy tests.

When we got home I made the most delicious smoothie eva!!!
It was just plain old frozen strawberries, 1/2 an overripe mango, skin and all, water, a few drops of stevia and a squeeze of fresh lime. It was so smooth and creamy!!! I was also dying to taste my new nut butters. What better way to test them then straight from the jar??? I pulled out 2 for my taste test. I started with the Moon Priestess Cashew Cacao Hempspread. (anything with chocolate has an upperhand with me). Click the name to get the details.

Heres a close up of this yummy spread...
Mmmmmm!!! Fablous!! To me it was just like eating chocolate covered nuts. I loved the big chucks and if you are a fan of crunchy nut butter you will love these spreads!

Next up was Rumi’s Sesame Pistachio Hempspread. (click the name to get the details).
Heres beautiful spread...
Right away I loved the beautiful bright green color. From what I have heard the hemp taste is not to appietizing but these two nut butters were fab! I also loved the taste of this one and you could definitely taste the pistachio. I bet it would be great mixed as an icing a top a pistachio cake!!

Another thing I love about the Wilderness Poets Hemp Nut Butter is that it is • Vegan • No Sugar • No Soy • Gluten Free • Non-GMO • No Trans Fat • No Cholesterol and its in the process of being certified organic.

Back to my fun filled day for a moment. Dinner was pretty random and nothing special...
Sausage and a small salad. I was still starving from my 5am workout so I also had a bowl of plain old oats which never fails to fill my tummy :).

After dinner we headed to Victorias Secert where I picked up a new bikini for 20 BUCKS!! Can you believe it? What a deal! Then we headed over to Barnes and Noble. Then off the grocery store to fill up my low fresh veg. bank. I was sad when my brother called at 9:30 saying my niece had to come home. I thought she was staying the night and was not looking forward to being alone :(.

I couldnt eat after midnight so at about 11:30 I had a late night snack of Oregon Hazelnut Hempspread with a small chunk of carrot...
My verdict? YUM!! Still chunky like all the others with a strong but balanced hazelnut flavor. Pergect on this carrot.

I also had it this morning in my bowl of berry oats (black and blueberries)...
I had just a dab but knew it would be enough and not get drowned out by the flavor of the oats and berries. It made my bowl complete!!

I also had this sausage on the side...
I am lovin me some hemp right now!! My little jars will fo sho be polished off by the end of the weekend!! (Is that threat?) haha

Have a happy hump day!!!

CONFESSION OF THE DAY: My husband and I met at a bar. If you are lucky I will tell you the embarrising name of the bar later.

Question: Where did you and your significant other meet?
