Happy Guy Fawkes Day to those in England! (I know G. Fawkes best as the mask from V for Vendetta and as the mascot for the anti-Scientology group that always prostests on Beacon Street)
Maybe I’ll hold a fake celebration in my backyard and light a fire in my fire pit!
The star of this morning’s breakfast was Pumpkin Butter I got from Trader Joe’s last night. The label featured several recommendations including mixing it with cream cheese. I decided to give that a try!
This Pumpkin Butter has the absolute ideal pumpkin flavor. I loved blending it with the smooth cream cheese. SO delicious!
I had to go to campus for a meeting. It was a gray and chilly morning at Boston College.
Autumn leaves and a nice view of the Heights.
I made a yogurt/almond butter blend for part of my lunch. Justin’s Natural Maple Almond Butter was perfect to add to a container of Vanilla Oikos. In honor of Peanutbutter Fingers, I took a taste of this AB before mixing. Amazing! And was a great compliment to the tangy vanilla Oikos flavoring. 2 for 2 in meals today! (So so so glad I got to sample this AB. Where is it sold???)
Intense photography concentration. I need to iron a bunch of pairs of work pants so I’ve been wearing a lot of skirts and dresses in the meantime. Colorful sweaters help to lighten the mood on dreary days!
I’m feeling overwhelmed with blog/Examiner.com work that I want to do. Hopefully I’ll have some extra time tonight after cleaning the apartment (it gets so messy so fast), making dinner, and watching the Office. Uh oh, I should take my lunch break now so I can hit the gym!

I love Justins almond butter! Ive seen it at Whole Foods, and some local stores carry it in here. Unfortunately, in Oklahoma, we dont have a whole foods and the only place it is sold is rediculously expensive, so I order it at justinsnutbutter.com! def worth it!

Wow, Boston College is so beautiful. I went to Miami University in Ohio and it was so pretty during the fall, I miss it!
I gotta try that pumpkin butter. I never think to get it when I go to Trader Joe’s….

I also saw the Justin’s Nut Butter packets at Whole Foods…..I was lucky to have the company send me samples, but I also bought different varieties at Whole Foods:)

I would love to try the pumpkin butter, but I am curious if it has alot of sugar in it??? The almond butter looks yummy too, I think I might have to visit whole foods this weekend.
