El Leon is the meowingest cat ever! You know he has made an entrance when you hear: “meowmeowmeowmeowmeowmeow.” It’s constant and oh-so-charming of him! He must have a lot to say.
I have few words for today’s breakfast, which left me speechless. Just simple pumpkin cottage cheese banana oats (ok, that really isn’t all that simple
) plus Carrot Raisin Walnut muffin and sunbutter! As in, the REAL Sunbutter – crunchy style! Opensky and I are talking and they sent me a jar. Jury says it’s as good as Trader Joe’s!
Red Velvet.
Have a fantastic weekend!!

El Leon matches your oats ; )
Argh that kitty!! You always have the yummiest breakfasts!. Have a lovely weekend!
Every time I see sunflower butter, I almost buy it but then I get all flustered wondering if I’ll really like it! TJ’s Crunchy PB won this time.
I personally don’t get the love! I read it on sososo many blogs that when I was able to get a free sample of some things I included Sunflower Butter, but months later it is still on my shelf. It’s salty and savory… I would maybe like it mixed in with dressings? But it’s not a peanut butter replacement at all!
completely agree! I bought it thinking I’d love it like everyone else and I just don’t! It’s got a funky taste to me.
This makes me sad!!
Haha I know, me too!
Me too! I bought sunflower butter after seeing it on several blogs and I don’t like it either. Part of the problem is that my mind is expecting something slightly sweeter/creamier and sunbutter is so salty and puddle-y. I don’t like the naturally nutty cinnamon vanilla flavor either! I definitely prefer creamy peanut butter.
I LOVE it (not as much as Smucker’s Natural Peanut Butter, though), but the nut butter I don’t like is Almond… I love almonds, but can’t stand AB!
I had pumpkin oats for breakfast too!
I always buy Sunbutter! It’s pricey but so, so good.
Loud meowing cats? Nothing beats mine after being on a trip and coming home. It’s a non-stop loud meow-fest basically chewing me out for being gone
Have a wonderful Saturday! Your oats look lovely!
Finally got on the pumpkin train and made whole wheat pumpkin muffins-yum!!
I really want to try sunflower butter. None of my local shops have any so i will have to look on-line. I am currently eating a pile of sunflower seed sprouts for my lunch which are great
What does red velvet tea taste like? Isn’t red velvet cake just vanilla/chocolate with cream cheese frosting? I wonder what makes the tea red, if it’s beetroot or food coloring?
Like roobios!
Aw! Happy Saturday- you’re off to a GREAT start!!!
What a cute cat. Your carrot walnut muffin (sans the raisins!) always sounds so yummy. Have a great Saturday!
What a gorgeous kitty! Cats seem to be drawn to you
Have a beautiful day!

I didn’t know you had a cat. He’s cute!
He’s not ours! Matt is allergic. He’s the neighbors
Think of sweet kitty as one of your blog readers — he can’t comment online so he must comment in person
Clearly, he’d like to give pumpkin cottage cheese banana oats a try! Really, who can blame him?? Have a great weekend!
Me-OW!
That spoon is beautiful! And so is the kitty.
Red velvet tea must be sucha TEAse
Is that your new bowl already being put to use? The pumpkin colored oats look so pretty against the green.
Looks tasty! I hope you have a wonderful weekend too Kath!
El Leon is the cutest cat ever. I love orange cats.
Have a great day, Kath!
So excited for crunchy sunbutter! I’ve been going to town on my jar of TJ’s this week.
He’s a tabby and they are talkers.
I love them. You can carry on a conversation with them. (haha) Enjoy your weekend!
I had pumpkin oats for breakfast too! No banana or cottage cheese though – I’m going to try it your way next time
Just got the book in the mail… excited to start making recipes with it!!
Oh good!!
Mmm I need to restock my pumpkin and sun butter….mmmmm
I need to try that tea! Sounds so good
OMG that cat is ADORABLE!
I love cats! Such great personalities……My cat never fails to make me laugh at least once a day!
Red velvet tea?! Did did you find that at? It sounds amazing!
Whole Foods from what I have heard. Seen the red velvet cupcake candle at Target.
that sunflower butter sounds so good. I love salted roasted sunflowers for a snack, so I am sure I would love sunflower butter but never seen it here in the UK, wonder if you can make it yourself?
You can – I think Mamapea or Ashley @ Edible Perspective did?
I read peasandthankyou regulary, don’t remember seeing it there, will go and check edible perspective out, thank you!
I just found it on peasandthankyou, I didn’t read attentively enough apparently
thanks again.
sometimes the most simple, regular bowls of oatmeal taste especially delicious… usually on lazy saturday mornings
Love your bowl of oats…such a perfect breakfast for a Saturday morning.
Happy weekend, Kath! The Natural Crunch Sunbutter is my absolute favorite!
i wanted to tell you that when i got my flu shot today, i followed your advice and let my arm hang limp. first shot i’ve ever gotten that didn’t hurt! thank you!! have a wonderful saturday.
SO glad for you!
Speaking of Trader Joe’s Nut Butter’s, here in the Philly area, I have been to 2 different stores and NO MORE organic peanut butter. I am so sad, it was my favorite brand. Anyone else have a TJ’s still carrying it?
love your bicycle coffee mug kath. where did you find it?
It’s from a blog reader in NY
Hey Kath, i stumbled upon your blog a few weeks back and i am so glad! you update so regularly and i love the food you eat and recommend because most of them are easy to make/find/buy yet taste so good! anyway,i think you look gorgeous so keep it up!
P/s: Avid reader from now on.
