FFF Has A NEW Look

After yesterday’s upsetting news, my mind still has a mess of thoughts running through it and I still feel a little emotionally drained. You all know how much of a passion blogging is for me and I wish I could create some sort of inspirational post right now. Or any post of semi-quality.

But I can’t. I don’t have the words in me right now. And that’s okay. This blog relates to living my life to the fullest, healthiest, and happiest possible – but it’s still about life. Sometimes life includes parts that simply suck and that you can’t express too well. Right now is one of those times and I have to own it instead of covering it up.

Despite not having much to say I do have something to show you. The past couple of months I have been working with Kristen from Ahoy Graphics for a new logo, blog design, etc. The new look of Faith Fitness Fun is now officially up and running. Please check it out and let me know what you think. I hope you like it!

What is That?!?!

Evening, my friends!! Thank you all for the supportive comments in my last post. Please note that if you ever expressed concern about my workouts, it never angered me. I really do appreciate the love from each of you. Like I mentioned, I wrote that post simply to clarify to everyone out there I am listening and caring for my body.

So, this morning started off with both kiddos up at 6:30. I had a brief moment of frustration because it meant I lost my morning quiet time, but I recovered quickly. I had a good night’s sleep and who can be frustrated at spending time with these two adorable faces?

I did not extend the same courtesy to my brand new jar of Dark Chocolate Dreams peanut butter, though…

dark chocolate dreams dcd mold

What is that?!?! I think its mold…but it doesn’t completely look mold-ish. Either way I know I’m not eating it! I already threw away my grocery receipt from the week too. Will I still be able to return it? I better! I used my special $1 off coupon!

The rest of the day went smoothly enough. Kids napped well. We played lots. My afternoon snack redeemed my breakfast disappointment.

mango chobani

Mango Chobani may have just overtaken pineapple as my favorite flavor. I want to mix the two together! Imagine the flavor explosion.

Good things continued with a quick visit from my friend Danielle. She brought us over another care meal. Yes. We’re loved in these parts. 😉

spaghetti casserole

And well fed. That would be a spaghetti casserole with some salad. Tasted good.

Question of the Evening – Do you hold on to grocery receipts? I never do. I sure hope I can still return that PB for another jar.

UPDATE: PB&Co responded in the comments section. What we saw is in fact oil separation and recrystallization of the cocoa butter. I did question its appearance as mold because I  had honestly never seen something like this in my numerous PB&Co purchases. That is what concerned me. So, now we all know. And I knew I would never stop purchasing my beloved PB from this one instance. The stuff is good!

It’s kind of funny. I become a certified personal trainer and the first workouts I turn to this week come from someone else. The book came in for me at the library last week and, after flipping through it, I couldn’t wait to give the circuits a go. Making The Cut includes a lot of […]
