This week is officially “update the blog week” for Peanut Butter Fingers.
I’ve been meaning to update some of the pages on this blog for quite some time, so each day this week I’ll be allocating some time to updating various pages. The recipe pages definitely need my attention since they haven’t been updated in far too long!
Today I updated the following pages:
The travel page is rather self-explanatory and simply highlights my travels, but the Orlando & Florida Travel page is a little more detailed. My hope is that the page will act as a decent resource for those of you who have emailed me in the past looking for restaurant or activity recommendations in my home state (and, specifically, Orlando).
More updates to come!
Dinner
Dinner tonight began with the roasting of broccoli, Brussels sprouts and sweet potatoes.
With the vegetables roasting away in the oven, I knew I had the base of my meal covered and opened the fridge in search of a source of protein.
I chopped up a few al fresco chicken sausages and sautéed them on the stovetop before adding them to the roasted veggies and calling it a meal.
So simple and so colorful!
Off to watch The Bachelorette! I love yelling out a Bachelorette countdown to Ryan as though he cares.
Four minutes!!!
Also, for my fellow Bachelorette and food blog-reading fans, apparently super-sweet bachelor Sean’s sister has a food blog, which you may see here: Mix and Match Mama. Neat, huh?

I’m not a bachelorette viewer, but that food blog does look like it has some good recipes!
We are roasting veggies tonight!! So good!
Must be in the air… I’ve been tweaking & updating mine all. day. long. I just can’t help myself =)
Haha that’s so funny – I bet her blog goes viral now!
I love the travel page!! As a newish resident to Orlando it has been super helpful. More than once I’ve referred to your restaurant suggestions and they’ve been awesome 🙂
I watching right now! Can’t wait to see who she picks!
That picture made my tummy grumble! Wish I was having that for dinner! Please updated on the show…I don’t have TV….newlyweds….lol
Hahaha oh my gosh I love the countdown 🙂 My boyfriend is currently watching the NJ-LA hockey game… I’m not sure if I’m gonna get to catch up with Ms. Maynard tonight. 😉
I love me some Bachelorette so I will be watching tonight for sure. I DVR it because I like to be able to skip through the commercials!
Your blog twin as I think I have heard you refer to her as(Sweet Tooth Sweet Life) also made a sausage meal for dinner tonight!! They say twins can sense what the other is doing even when distanced from one another, lol!!!
I’m watching now, and Sean is the CUTEST!
I need to institute an update the blog week too!
I hate that I have to wait until the next evening to watch Bachelorette on Hulu! Haha it’s especially worse for the final rose ceremony, it’s impossible not to find out who was chosen!
I love the travel pages 😀 My husband and I are planning a trip to Florida next year. I can’t wait even more now!!
I roasted Brussels sprouts tonight too! But I didn’t take the time to blanch them and they were a bit crunchy. Do you do anything to yours before they hit he oven?
I make this dinner all the time. Simple, fresh, and healthy. I just cut up the chicken sausage and roast it along with the veggies though, one less dish to wash 🙂
Roasted veggies are the best — especially brussel sprouts. Love them. What do you put on them when you roast them? I usually drizzle some olive oil and whatever fresh herbs I’ve got around.
Dang..I read this too late. Bachelorette is over. I need help reminding.
Roasted veggies are amazing. Love, love, love them! I am not a big fan of the bachelorette. Don’t hate on me but Im reading a book called The Selection that is similar to the bachelorette. Have a great night 🙂
Julie! i was on pinterest tonight and saw this beautiful pin of a picture to take before you get married, and look who is in the group of pictures! not sure if you’ve seen it yet, but i thought it was so cute!

Thought I should let you know in case you already didn’t. Tomorrow is National Peanut Butter Cookie Day!
How long do you roast your veggies for? I always overcook mine. I’m still learning! Ha!
That’s awesome! Sean is my current favorite 🙂 I’m really looking forward to the Bachelorette, but I think I’m going to have to wait til tomorrow to watch it on DVR.
Last week I did a meal with roasted sweet potatoes, brussels, and broccoli…sooo good, that combo will never get old! I love that you do a countdown…I do one with my fiance too, but he actually LIKES to watch it with me, he is out of town for the next two weeks and just before the show started I got a text asking for me to wait to watch the show with him 🙂
hm chicken sausage, my favorite! I tell people about chicken sausage all the time and they cringe like it’s some dull health food or something, ug!
There is something about brussels sprouts and sweet potato together that is perfect! I love them roasted with runny eggs on top drizzled with a tiny bit of balsamic vinegar.
I stumbled across Sean’s sister’s blog the other day and am addicted to both her personal and food blogs! She is so cute!! I am so on Team Sean! 🙂
Hey! I’m the Mix and Match Mama (a.k.a. Sean’s sister). Thanks for mentioning my foodie blog. All foodie bloggers are the best! Have fun watching The Bachelorette :). Love your blog!
Wow, thanks for the timely dinner idea! I only have a little time between work and a class tonight and couldn’t figure out what to have for dinner. Just so happens that I have leftover roasted veggies in the fridge and chicken sausage in the freezer! I would never have thought to combine the two!
