Granola bar

what is granola

I recently tried Nature Valley’s sweet and salty granola bars. I would be lying if I told you they were not good.  In fact, they are outstanding! However, I would kinda classify them in the candy bar or cookie category. . . Darn it all! In particular, the cashew would be my favorite.  Not like I [...]

Making eggs and toast for J and I yesterday, I was perplexed as to which nut butter I wanted. Well, I decided to go with both, cashew and Sunbutter, that is! Side by side, Sunbutter is still #1! For lunch I had my smoothie in a bowl.  I think I prefer this route, if time [...]
