Was It Almond Butter?

I usually go straight to the fitness club or pool after work. Otherwise, I have time to relax and, possibly, forgo exercise.

Today, I decided to workout around an NBA playoff game. I've found that I can stay on a cardio machine for a very long time if a game is in front of me. I watched the first half of the Cavaliers/Hawks game which was pretty good but the Hawks have to play almost perfect to hang with the Cavs and it didn't happen.

I like the Lebron James MVP t-shirt. And did I hear that the Lakers lost the first game of the series to the Rockets? Whattttttttt?

I logged 85 minutes watching the first half of the game and a smidgen of TNT's half-time show. I wanted to stay longer but my thigh is already smarting from my other unofficial 'Dreathon on Saturday.

I finished off my peanut butter that came from Whole Foods. In the meantime, I decided to go back to my Algood p'butter and it didn't taste very well this time around. In fact, it tasted how I imagine Crisco would taste if you ate it straight out of the can. I can't believe that my taste buds changed so fast. I picked up some 365 Organic Peanut Butter and it's not what was in the Whole Foods container; the texture is completely different.

Hmmmm, just what did my benefactor give me? Was it almond butter? The 365 peanut butter was quite satisfying and I absolutely love the hint of sea salt but, now, I need to go on a quest to find out just what I was eating.

I've been digging oven fries for a minute. At times, I'll have a sweet potato and russet potato mix and, sometimes, I'll stick with the homogeneous oven fries.

These fries have chili powder, cumin, garlic powder and sea salt to make them flavorful.

Speaking of fried things, I watched The Amazing Race the other day and one of the detours was a food challenge. Apparently, the citizens of Beijing like their scorpions, starfish, larvae and grasshoppers deep fried. Jen and Kisha pretty much got eliminated from the race because Jen could hardly stomach the delicacies.

In this scene, Kisha (and Jen) try to say fried chicken, spare ribs and vegetarian noodles in Mandarin. I don't know how they pulled that one off.
