Peanut Butter.. and jelly and jelly

spread it spread it

It started innocently enough as a comment from Solobreak... and me fresh off a delivery walk in the gorgeous outside with a small (which is the same size as a Starfucks grandeventiscrewyououtacash) Dunkin Donuts Iced Coffee... the first sip of the black, unsweetend cold beverage reminds me why all Rhode Islanders have the coffee person put 5 splendas cream and lots of vanilla spice flavor in it. Yes that is actually what the girl infront of me in line ordered... 'heavy on the vanilla spice, please'

anyway

it started with this:
PB is critical for me survival...

I'll often whip up a batch of gewilli/thai/indian peanut sauce for noodles and either stir-fried chicken or tofu...

the quick fall back meal that the girls love....

My preference for the sweetened PB is the Reeses. If ya haven't tried that stuff ya haven't tried peanut butter. It actually tastes like peanuts...

in general i prefer to get natural, and organic (if possible) salted but unsweetened peanut butter. The kind with the oil floating on it that ya gotta mix up...

And you MUST MUST MUST put peanut butter on both sides. One side has more tho.. awe f*ck it... TBC blogstyle

TBC = to be continued (for Zoo's benefit)

So...

one side gets a heaping pile of peanut butter, the other side gets a thin layer. Why? to keep the jelly from soaking into the bread and destroying the integrity of the sandwich...

So... now we have one slice with a hell uva lotta peanut butter, and one slice with a gasket layer of PB...

time to add the jelly. I'm pretty much with SB. Grape is great. BUT, i'll go with any berry spread, razz, black, blue, logan, straw... just not apple or citrus stuff... gotta be berry...

So ya take the heaping spoonful and dollop it on top of the PB... take the knife and work the jelly into the PB. Mix it up baby. Integrate the jelly into the Peanut butter. Keep adding jelly till ya got a nice blend of the two. Slam the bread together and eat.

Toasting the bread is gravy ontop of it all.

For variations i love using maple syrup instead of jelly. Infact as a kid that's how i developed the mix and swirl technique. Some folks like honey... and both honey and Syrup (gotta be the real deal... fake shit is for fatso's and morons... gotta use real maple syrup) get lost if they are allowed to soak into the bread. Turns out that incorporating the jelly the same way makes for a kick ass sandwich.

So in other words i arrived at the anti-jelly bruise but from a different thought process, one that arguable is far more anal and complex than Pallywog.

never lead to any beatings, just really frustrated babysitters and others who attempted to prepare me a PP&J sammy.

Sailorman is the homemade bread expert right now - from what he's tellin me, he's generating some seriously kick ass loaves... just wishin his lame ass still lived in Bristol... so i could pop down on a whim and sample some of it... with PB&J. Oh and check his POV on the weight of woman's boobs... 15-23 pounds for a pair of D cups? Ya freaking kidding me? dats a riot... different not PB&J subject... although certainly a subject to contemplate while eating a perfectly prepared PB&J sandwich... cause a properly made PB&J sammy ain't a multi-tasking food experience.
