Day 108 / - 73 +or-) Gah! Salty PNut Butter!

As we (my wife and I) were walking to the track this morning, we heard a huge commotion in the yard of the house next to us. There was a number of load thumps and then a blur of motion as something big ran from the yard. We turned to each other in surprise and then spotted more quick movement crossing the street just as a coyote bolted from the yard.

Once in the street, the coyote did little more than a quick yard as we watched in make it’s retreat off into the dark of early morning. Having never seen one this close (less than 20 feet), we didn’t realize they were so big. Nothing like a little wildlife fun to make your morning more interesting.

Note to self: No more Adam’s All Natural Peanut Butter- unless it’s UNSALTED.

I like the stuff, to be sure, but if you pour off the oil (like I do) you still have to mix it up. There isn’t anything like the briny deep of an unmixed jar of all-natural peanut butter. I’d say that the bottom 10% was carrying 90% of the salt for the whole jar. Never again.

Now if I could only find the unsalted stuff in bigger than a 2 cup jar.
