Peanut butter helped me thru my first camp out with the Brownie troop into the nearby woods. Afraid of giant moths, I was nearly paralyzed when the sun went down and the lantern flicker and swayed as the behemoths attacked our only source of light.My heart shape sandwich filled with peanuty essence calmed me down.
Peanut butter has been the one constant in my life. When I was in the circus and too poor to buy real meat, peanut butter was my only source of protein thru the entire state of
Now, THEY, some stupid book, say it’s bad for me. That I should substitute almond or sunflower butter. They all taste like paste compared to my Skippy. And they don’t warm my heart. My heart is very cool with all this juicing and avoiding wine.

Get thee to Whole Foods & pick up a jar of ROASTED almond butter. It's the most decadent food I know. STeve & I went thru a jar in 3 days.

Yum. Super crunchy peanut butter. Have you tried the Skippy Honey Roasted Crunchy?
ReplyDeleteNo Whole Foods in this po-dunk place. You say mold like its a bad thing.
