Crankin - glad you are feeling better!

Yesterday:
B: eggs scrambled with veggies, bacon, butternut squash/apple hash, coffee
1 hour kettlebell training session (different coach) Learned some good things about technique!
L: Last of the roasted chicken hearts and thighs over sauteed chard and other veggies, fermented veggies
D: West African Chicken Stew and Sweet-Salty Brocolli salad from Well Fed 2. This was the BEST chicken stew I've made so far from this recipe and I think it is because I gave up trying to find sugar-free sunbutter. I tried to make my own again, but THIS time it actually worked. Apparently it helps to roast the sunflower seeds first, apparently that helps persuade them to release the oils. I wanted to eat the entire recipe, but I did limit myself to one serving 1 beer

Today
Woke up to news of freezing rain and sleet before snow, so decided to stay home today.

B: made a huge veggie/ground pork/baked egg casserole/frittata (whatever it is), 1 slice nitrate-free bacon, coffee
Kettlebell workout at home - a 500-swing workout broken up with some work on my Jungle Gym
L: more of the West African Chicken Stew and Sweet-Salty Brocolli salad, last of the butternut squash/apple hash from yesterday
D: I've a pastured pork roast braising in the oven, and a couple of sweet potatoes are keeping it company. Will probably have some of both and saute some chard and, perhaps, roast some kale. Perhaps one beer and 1-2 squares of very dark free trade chocolate. I found a local source...which is a bit dangerous!

I want to say again how incredible that homemade fresh sunbutter is - it makes me want to toast some almonds I have and try my hand at almond butter. I won't, however, as I doubt I COULD resist that temptation with fresh almond butter. Sunflower butter isn't my favorite, but it goes SO well in the chicken stew recipe - and who can beat $2 for a huge bag of them? Certainly far less expensive than buying sugar-free sunbutter!
