You’re unique.
Just like everyone else.
It seems like everyone has done a “September Superlative” post!  I’m being a copy cat… but in a unique way because I’m doing it late.  😉
1. Most Popular:
Microwave Protein Cookie + WIAWÂ – This nutty, protein-filled 30 second cookie was the most viewed post in September. Â I also loved this post because it highlights a few of the many reasons women should lift weights.Â
2. Most Likely to Win a Bar Fight
This Tequila-Lime Tilapia would kick your dinner’s butt. Â And it would walk out in a perfectly straight line ’cause the booze (mostly) cooks out.
3. Most Versatile
What isn’t better layered like a parfait?  I’m awarding my Protein Parfait the Most Versatile because I’ve made it a million ways.  The original was a Tiramisu Protein Parfait, but September’s flavor-of-the-month is a Pumpkin Tiramisu.
A few friends have made their own versions. Â Check out this Chocolate-Peanut Butter version from Sarena:
4. Most Unique
This is a no-brainer. Â #sorryimnotsorry to be Captain Obvious, but most unique is all about the “Strange But Good” posts. Â Â I’m craving peaches, so I’m going to call out the post with the Salmon-Peach Salad:
Â
But you should check out the follow-up post for more #strangebutgood… like Mexican Hot Chocolate Protein Ice Cream.  If that’s still not enough strange, click on over to Lauren’s blog.  She’s featuring some weird combos today, including my PB & Jeggs!
5. Most Photogenic
It’s no secret that I abhor taking pics.  It’s a necessary evil for me as a blogger… so when I get one that I really like, I get excited.  This Fig and Edamame Salad with Sriracha-Lime Vinaigrette was pretty and delicious (fashionable and functional?).Â
Honorable Mention
This isn’t a September post, but I have to give it some love… my Mexican Cauliflower “Rice” Bowl was included in Fitness Magazine’s 11 Easy Lunches to Lose Weight!

I wasn’t cool in high school, so no superlatives for me.  Even more reason to Bogart an entire blog post giving them to myself.  Bwhahaha!
Did you get a superlative in school?
What would your superlative be for the month of September?  Brag on yo’ self!
Congrats on the feature! Very awesome. 🙂 I haven’t looked at my stats in at least a month, so I have no idea what would be the most popular post. I was pretty pleased with my apple muffins though, which I guess counts for something. (Hopefully I typed in that link correctly…)
I campaigned hard for people to vote for me for “sleeps most in class” in high school. I didn’t win. But I should have! I know, something to be proud of, right?
I would have voted for you. 🙂
You should win “most creative superlative categories”, duh. 😉 I’m proud of myself for my first 10k!
My school didn’t do superlatives…so I didn’t have the opportunity to not win one (LAME).
I do know that I never won homecoming queen, but who cares I got to be the captain of the cheerleaders (I’ll hang my hat on that little accomplishment and call it a day).
Congrats on the feature!!!
Oh you mentioned yesterday that you had another demo coming up? Congratulations on that. Will it be at the farmer’s market across from your building? Seriously Vita-Mix is going to need to make you an offer (or at least some swag).
Cheer captain?! Look at you, hot stuff! 🙂
this demo is a bigger setting, and no Vitamix… I’m really, really nervous. More to come…
How did I forget about that cookie and that I needed to make it? Trying out this new-fangled Pinterest for keeping track of food ideas, we’ll see if that helps.
I’ll make you one this weekend! Wheeee!
very cool idea, love the eats!
I was totally going to do this. I might do it tomorrow for my WIAW … maybe. Unless I eat something pretty awesome today. I’ve failed at taking pix of my food.
HOLY YUMMM, all of the above look delicious! I’ve got 2 superlatives for my September… Most memorable moment: getting married [eek, yay!]… Refound obsession: peanut flour!
I think you got the mother of all memorable superlatives. Congratulations!!
I was Most Likely to Brighten Your Day.
Of course I was also in charge of the senior section of the yearbook and might have been able to sway people to vote for me.
The truth comes out.
I am unsurprised. I’d give you that one now! 🙂 #nuttylove
P.S. I was the yearbook editor. nerds Unite!
No, I did not get a superlative. But if I did, it would be “most talkative.” I was always getting yelled at my teachers to quit chatting!
I love this recap style posts… always reminds me of the things I missed and wanted to try. Congrats on your recipe being featured, too!
Thank you, Laura! I love when you do them. 🙂
Haha, I love reading these superlative posts on various blogs and seeing what people come up with for titles. I think the most photogenic is one of the best recipes- edamame is an obsession of mine. In high school I won best eyes and best couple- even though we broke up about a month later, ooh young relationships.
That’s so sad!!! Best eyes is a great one though!
i had my bet on bourbon chicken for the win. Or guinness stew.
Mmmm… bourbon…
funny how everyone has a microwave recipe of some type 😉 thank goodness for convenience of it!
I know! I’m digging on Heather’s PB-Pumpkin Cake right now too.
Love quick protein ideas! And I think I just got a weird look for licking the computer screen…((sigh))
Hahaha! I’ve been known to lick a screen or two (doesn’t that sound like a country song?).
I saw that you were featured while reading last night! So awesome 🙂 and your pumpkin parfait still always looks the best to me!
Thank you! That parfait is definitely getting some wear around here. 🙂
I was Most Athletic back in the day. I wonder what I would be if people voted now. Most Likely to be Injured, perhaps?
I was one of the many that tried your microwave protein cookie. There’s a reason it’s so popular!
Nooooo! I’d still vote you Most Athletic.
Thanks for trying to cookie. 🙂
NICE JOB getting into fitness magazine!! My superlative for September would be making the Daily Buzz Healthy Living top 9!!!
That was awesome! And I can’t think of a better topic for you to be included in. 🙂
Love the look of those parfaits!
You definitely get my superlative as the most unique!! I love all your creations!!
I love this post! I loved that parfait too! YUM! Good for you tooting your own horn on that Fitness Magazine spotlight! That dish looks amazing! I’m totally doing that soon! I love me some cauliflower rice!
Why oh WHY haven’t I made your tiramasu parfait yet?! I need to brew an extra cup of coffee tomorrow (extra strong) so that I can have it ready to go! I suppose I could also try it with chai tea… or Dandy Blend…
I didn’t get any superlatives in high school, but heard I was a close second for “most artistic.” I would have voted me “laziest” or “hates to exercise the most.” Clearly I’m a different gal, 15 years later. 🙂
I want to make heather’s tiramisu pancakes, but crumble them in a parfait…. epic.
Chai would be really good! Maybe with some orange sections? Or plum?
I cannot see you as laziest!
My school didn’t do superlatives – we were lame and didn’t even have a football team… But if I were to give myself a superlative for September it would be “most likely to get sick from eating too much watermelon.” I’ve been completely addicted to that darned fruit lately and have no problem going through mass quantities of it on a daily basis.
Ohhhh… I wish we could still get good watermelon. That sounds good!
Perhaps, if this AirBnB apartment had a microwave, I wouldve made that cookie instead of eating 2/3rds of the pint of Laloo’s Rumplemint.
I don’t think that pint is a bad substitute… 😉
I definitely wasn’t cool enough in high school for superlatives….ha!
High 5 to being in with the out crowd!
No superlatives in HS for me either – I’d say it’s because I went to four high schools, but it’s more likely that I simply wasn’t that girl. In September,mhiwever, I think I won my own personal superlative of “most productive.”. I was crazy busy but feel like I got a ton accomplished!
I NEED to win most productive. Way to go!
Each of these recipes are special in their own way – I like that my friend 🙂
Nice one!
Cheers

Thank you so much! I award you most unique sweets. 🙂
Well look at you miss popularity! Congratulations on the feature…that’s awesome! And loved the “most likely to win a bar fight” Lol!
You know, I meant to tell you (and tried unsuccessfully to work it into my post…I blame my lack of sleep) but I was totally inspired by your tiramisu parfaits for this past Pancake Sunday! Ever since I had that pumpkin one, I couldn’t get it out of my head! I NEED to make it again for sure!
No superlatives for me in high school…I was obviously too cool for school! 😉
But as for my September superlative? I’d say my pumpkin cake makes Most Popular…or I could say Most Likely to be Instagrammed…and Drooled Over! I like it…kinda catchy! 😉
I cannot WAIT to try those pancakes. And just wait until you see what I did to your PB cake… consider it sufficiently drooled over and imitated/bastardized.
My superlative for September would be most consecutive anxiety attacks.
Fig and edamame? That looks cool but I’m not won over by the sound of it. I’ll have to head on over to check out the rest of the recipe.
Also, congrats about the magazine mention! That’s fabulous!
I love your honesty… check it out and let me know what you think 😉
