Heather Eats Almond Butter…

Tue, Feb 9, 2010

Food Glorious Food

and a few *other* things.

I had a fantastic time at Blissdom meeting tons of bloggers from all different genres.

One of my fave Nashville bloggers, however, was not in attendance.

As a result I was compelled to beg her to join me so that we could at long last meet in person…

…and to drag her into the icky dizaster below so we could both taste, on camera, something neither of us had consumed before.

Together.

As Sisters in YouNeedToWatchTheVideoToFindOutWhat.

Please to enjoy.

(& please to join me in not understanding why my glasses inexplicably appear tinted)

  1. Ha! Very cute!

    I haven’t had sardines in awhile, but I do like them. But I used to get them in oil.

  2. Jessica says:

    I have never had a sardine! Yikes!

  3. Leah says:

    How fun!!

    I love reading both of your blogs (and you would never ever get me to try sardines no matter how much I love ya :) ).

  4. Leah says:

    Oooh and I thnk you talked about this on your pod cast too

    Didn’t you?

  5. Bea says:

    OK I have to ask:

    Did it taste like tuna?

  6. Alissa says:

    So funny! :) It looks disgusting but the taste isn’t all that bad!

  7. Beth says:

    You all are brave. I don’t know if I could do that. I really do not enjoy fish. Heather’s blog is one of my favorite reads. It’s fun to see you both “live.”

  8. Tara says:

    You two are like my superstars of blogging.
    The food and the fitness.

    More please.
    Less canned fish LOL

  9. AHHH that is so awesome!! You had Leah video you..you should have made HER eat them too!! LOL

  10. Erica says:

    hahahhahahhaha! You guys are hilarious. Ick….I used to work with a guy who ate mass amounts of those. The smell alone was too much for me. Isn’t Heather the best? She is just so super sweet. Glad you made it home safe ;)

  11. dragonmamma says:

    I have them occasionally; don’t hate ‘em, don’t love ‘em.

    My husband always slops mustard on them.

  12. Shelley says:

    Look how cute you two look!! (and brave!)

    Glad you had a good conference & are home to the TT and the RM safe & sound!

  13. You brave, brave women!!!

  14. Marianne says:

    I have some 9-Lives you can demo… Maybe you shoulda rolled ‘em in chia first…

    : )

  15. erin says:

    Yucky! It looked like you LOVED it, though. ;)

  16. Sagan says:

    I HEART Heather and got to meet her at POM! Such a sweetheart.

    You’re both so brave with the sardines, hehe. Your expressions are the same as mine the first (and last!) time I ever had raw herring when I lived in Holland :D

  17. Natalia says:

    Wow! I don’t know that I would try sardines…but I did try some sushi for the first time yesterday. I’m not a big fish fan it tends to taste too…uh, fishy! :) Is Blissdom something that’s going to be happening every year?

  18. The flavored stuff doesn’t taste bad. I like anything garlic flavored though. Just plain without salt or oil or anything else? Idk. lol. Brave :)

  19. Stacey says:

    I’m a big fan of Heather’s blog too!

    Why am I so surprised you know each other? I wish I could have been a fly on the wall during your meetup!

  20. Stacey says:

    Who is talking in the background/filming?

    Another blogger??

  21. MizFit says:

    I did try some sushi for the first time yesterday.

    THE FIRST TIME? I could live on sushi. Thankfully I cant afford to :)

    The flavored stuff doesn’t taste bad.

    DietGirl said the BBQ is better? I may have to redo this and get me some flavored :) as many kinds as I can find.

    Who is talking in the background/filming?
    Another blogger??

    Yes! It is Leah from bookieboo.com

    Blissdom something that’s going to be happening every year?

    This is only the THIRD year and it has grown from I think 50 women the first year to 500!
    They are indeed having next year AND launching a Blissdom CANADA!

    off to eat breakfast #2
    and NO.
    Not sardines.

  22. Missicat says:

    Sardines? *shudder* Maybe BadCat and BadKitten would try that…

  23. Urp! That probably wasn’t a good thing for me to watch so early in the a.m.

    I’m still bummed I missed Blissdom! I was a week too late in signing up. ah well, next year, if the $$$ hold out. :)

  24. Mari says:

    You’ve got some serious guns on you Miz! :)

  25. UGH! I don’t think I am going to join you in this one! Pass! :-) You were brave! I don’t even like regular ole fish!!!

  26. MizFit says:

    I adore the fish and nearly spit it out too, Jody.

    ick.

  27. you and you’re hair-brained ideas…I love them all.

  28. Gigi says:

    Would be better smothered in cheese on top of crackers. You’re brave!

  29. You tried the sardines! I am scared to LOL! I died laughing at your face :D

  30. Haha. DORK.

    Loved meeting you Miz. So glad we finally got to connect in person. Will be in touch. :)

  31. deb roby says:

    Tried sardines for the first time a couple weeks ago. Like you, I ate them right out of the can (and ate the whole can). I think they would be better on a salad, or some flat bread with hummus and cukes, or … well as an ingredient in something.

    I’m adding them to my “regular” foods – they have lots of good stuff.

  32. You’re braver than I am. I know they’re good for you and sustainable and everything but ick, ick, ick!

  33. Karen says:

    I am now sitting here wondering if you HAD said that your guns were all due to sardines if I would have started eating them.

    love ya Miz.

  34. this is so funny…i have sardines at home and i’m totally scared to try them…now i feel like i should try them :)

  35. Shelley B says:

    Ew ew ew…I was yelling at the video “DON’T DO IT!!!” but y’all did…icky! Did you have a bottle of water off camera to rinse and spit afterward?

    The two of you are so cute together – glad you got to meet up and share some shenanigans!

  36. Rose says:

    Ha! I love it!

  37. Aubry says:

    I’ve never done a blogger meetup!

    This might be a silly question but were you nervous??

    • MizFit says:

      not a silly question at all! I wasnt nervous per se…excited? curious? a bit in awe?

      I know for me its reason number 13718327 why Im precisely the same online as I am OFF.

      If I werent—-Id be nervous :)

  38. Geosomin says:

    Your glasses are tinted cuz the filter in the camera is interacting with the filter coating on them.
    So my husband says.

    Me, I was just looking at the almond butter…:)

  39. Karyn says:

    I love to eat sardines crushed up on toast with butter. Delicious!!

  40. kelsey says:

    the sardines in spain were fat and delicious … I MEAN DELICIOUS (and not canned). I don’t care for most of the ones here, but those spanish ones were amazing. :D

  41. gina (fitnessista) says:

    ohhhh i love heaby!!!!
    so cute but i don’t think i could do it
    is that tiara ready?!?
    xoxo

  42. Gemfit says:

    I used to eat sardines on toast and on crackers growing up. I haven’t had them for years, but I walk past them on the shelf at the store and think about it. Mixed with some mayo, I love ‘em.

    And definitely better in oil.

    I’m so going to buy some this weekend. The Boy won’t eat them but I’ll enjoy. Nom Nom.

  43. messymimi says:

    Sorry, I just can’t get myself to try some things. Sardines is on the list.

  44. Merry Mary says:

    Very cool. Someone just mentioned her blog to me so now I have to start reading.

  45. Amy says:

    Yay! A new blog to stalk. Anyone who would eat sardines is someone who….would eat sardines LOL

  46. Oh my, sorry, I just can’t bring myself to eat sardines! The smell and sight are just too much for me. :(

  47. Mary Meps says:

    I’ve never eaten a sardine either. :) Glad you had fun.

  48. What a great time! You are brave!
    :)

  49. Kat says:

    Aww, you guys were so cute. And, ew. Never had them, never want to.

  50. Karla says:

    you did not look like you were enjoying it, I will pass on the sardines

  51. Peggy says:

    I tried sardines for the first time about two years ago. I bought them in a spicy tomato sauce and tossed them with pasta. I said they were not horrible and finished the portion on my plate but the leftovers were tossed a week later. I have no desire to eat them again.

  52. s says:

    hehe! cool video post. i’ve never tried sardines (that i know of, haha). don’t think i ever will.

  53. Gena says:

    “Bones have calcium.” Way to look on the bright side, Heather. I’ve never had sardines, but I think the packed in oil and salt ones would probably taste better.

  54. christieo says:

    LOL you guys are better women than me! Not a sardine eater, kinda grosses me out. But good for you on trying them!

  55. Cute vid! OK truth: There is a swanky LA establishment called Kate Mantilini- in beverly hills. I go there sometimes because several members of my family have health issues that bring them to nearby doctors (I wish it was just to shop shop shop but alas, NO). ANyway, Kate’s has a Sardine and Banana Sandwich. NO LIE! (IT’s not on the menu online) And honestly, because I’m weird I had to order it and truth be known. I liked it. There I said it.

    So fun that you two met up- Would have loved to have joined you!

  56. Gaby says:

    I Love sardines!!!

  57. Jill says:

    I’ve never had them, but my grandma likes the ones that are in mustard sauce. :S

  58. Jen says:

    Hi Mizfit,
    I’m a HEAB follower, and followed her over here.
    My friend in Nashville was just talking about Blissdom…she writes a party/celebration blog.

  59. Hanlie says:

    I love sardines on toast… Not something I eat these days, but I grew up on it.

  60. Sardines….yumm!!! hehe :) I’ll have to try them again. Love your blog!! It’s awesome that you two finally got to meet in person. :)

  61. I love it! This video made me smile from ear to ear :) You two are so cute, I wish I could meet you in person!

    Way to go for trying those sardines…I am not sure I could do it. I’ve never tried them before and I guess I need to do so before I say that I don’t like them! ;)

  62. charlotte says:

    How much do I love you two??? Almost as much as I love sardines! Kidding. Mostly. You guys are adorable – someday I will meet you too! Until then, I’ll crack open a can in your honor:)

  63. Liberty says:

    I don’t love sardines, but do love the easy quick protein they offer. Try putting them in a bowl with some high quality basalmic vinegar and eat on a really crunchy cracker – I like the Mary’s GF. It off sets the texture of the sardine… you can learn to like anything…
