Over my Christmas break, I got sunflower seed butter from Trader Joe’s. There’s no Trader Joe’s around here, so as my sunflower seed butter is getting low, I’ve been slowly panicking. I’m obsessed with it. I have it every morning slathered on a piece of high fiber toast. They have the Sunbutter here at Wegman’s, but for $5.99 a jar, I don’t think it’s quite worth it for how fast I seem to go through it. Having a jar full of sunflower seeds, I decided I’d make my own. After I melted my Ninja bowl so I can no longer place the blade inside, I found out again that my blender doesn’t work, and then dirtied the Ninja pitcher trying to finish it off, I only had a sunflower seed paste. Completely frustrated and a bit worried that I had plastic mixed throughout the “butter,” I threw it into a jar and into the fridge, threw the Ninja bowl away and ordered a new blade, got a spatula stuck onto the blender blade (it’s now still sitting in the sink, me being too afraid to deal with it anymore), cleaned all of the still usable dishes, and proceeded to call my mom and complain about how frustrated I was. I then ordered a cheap food processor that should be able to handle it next time.
