{April 2, 2013}   PB & J

Yes, PB&J, you aren’t confused, I am writing about peanut butter and jelly and I la la la love it!

As a kid, one of my favorite meals was a PB&J on toasted white bread with a glass of ice cold strawberry milk..o m g. Ok, I’ll admit, I still love PB&J, doesn’t always have to be on toasted white bread, just as long as there is peanut butter and there is jam. I prefer creamy peanut butter and strawberry jam (hey, I named to cats Peanut and her sister, Butter). As long as its not jelly, too runny and I don’t like the consistency, I like to taste the fruit.

For a long time, I couldn’t have milk, then I was diagnosed with lactose intolerance and that first glass of milk, like manna from the heavens! let alone strawberry, wow! At Walmart, I found these straws, filled with flavored beads, they have strawberry, chocolate and banana!

There are days, when I can’t get enough PB&J, sandwich for breakfast, one for lunch, maybe one for dinner, it’s ok. I know peanut butter isn’t kosher, but sometimes PB&J on matza, remember…we have to find creative ways to eat matza.

Don’t get me wrong, I even love PB and banana! Wow! There is a sandwich at a Which Wich, the sandwich shoppe, called The Elviswich…it has peanut butter, bananas and honey and its toasted! (They started adding bacon, no thanks). This is comfort food to the max! But, no matter how good that is and how much better it probably is for me, give me a PB&J and I am a happy girl!

The reason I am inspired by PB&J is that Planet Smoothie has a smoothie, go figure, PB&J. It has ice cream, peanut butter, strawberries and milk. I get it without the milk and sometimes I’m ok with the Ice cream, sometimes not..It’s one of my treats that I don’t get to have very often because there is no Planet Smoothie near me, but…there is one near the office and when I have to go in, I know I’m going to go to Planet Smoothie and get a PB&J, wahoo! Almost makes the commute worth it (for about an hour!)

I went into the office today and the smoothie helped after the 1.5 hour commute and guess what, I am going to be in the office for the rest of the week, you know what that means! Maybe I’m close to my 10th smoothie..look out freebie!

Gotta get to sleep so I can get up and get my smoothie! I don’t care if its lame, it’s my life and my life is sweet, like strawberry jam! (Yeah, I went there!)
