Crazy Richards has been my go-to peanut butter the past few days.
I received several jars of Crazy Richards and Krema peanut butter from the company to sample (stay tuned for a giveaway soon!), and was pleased to see that the only ingredient in the peanut butter was peanuts! Ya can’t get more natural than that! 😀
At first I thought the peanut butter was really runny until I realized that refrigerating the jar made it regain the thickness I normally associate with yummy peanut butter. Once I did that, it was smooth (delicious) sailing.
Snack
My mid-morning snack was a peanut butter finger, followed by a piece of honey wheat bread topped with more Crazy Richards natural creamy peanut butter.
With a full belly, I headed out to the pool to soak up some sun while flipping through magazines, painting my toenails and catching up with my friend Leah on the phone.
Lunch
I came home hungry for lunch.
Lunch started with a mini Mexican roll-up.
Along with the roll-up, I shared a big plate (seriously BIG) of rutabaga fries with Ryan.
It’s kinda nice to eat such a ginormous portion of fries and not worry at all about the bazillions of calories, grease, trans fat and oil you’re ingesting. Rutabaga fries = awesome.
Now it’s shower time… I hope to make it to the bridal boutique before it closes at 5 p.m. to finalize my bridesmaid dresses today, but I think I may be cuttin’ it a little close on time. Hurry, hurry!!

That’s why I love healthy food so much! I’m a big volume-eater, so I love being able to eat a ton of something (i.e. a mixing bowl full of protein Frosty) and have it be better for you than eating a small amount of something bad for you! (i.e. a small cup of Wendy’s Frosty) Heheh.
