Secret Single Behavior: Peanut Butter style
Apologies in advance for the estrogen-laden comments in this post. I own all of the “Sex and the City” seasons on dvd and now many episodes have entered themselves into my daily lexicon. Sorry, guys. I am truly sorry.
So, although I am now married, I still desperately cling to random behaviors from my past (and I’ve also developed new ones). I won’t bore you with all the details, but here are a few:
knitting while watching anything on iTunes, making a quick lemonade in my Nalgene bottle with lemon slices, sugar, lemon juice and several large ice cubes, painting my toenails red while watching Law & Order…and now on to the food…
Lately, I’ve realized that many people have secret single behaviors that involve peanut butter (and yes, the ones I speak of are all G-rated, so don’t get too excited).
My secret single behavior involves Trader Joe’s mini stone wheat crackers, peanut butter and jam. See below:
Somehow this combination is vastly superior to pb&j with the crusts cut off (sorry, Bender). There’s a quick crunch of the cracker plus the immensely satisfying creaminess of the peanut butter and the sweet tang of jam.
Peanut butter is one of those foods that inspires plenty of SSB or at least some brief attacks with a large spoon. Here are some other combinations that might inspire SSB or a nice snack:
Spoonfuls of peanut butter with honey (this is a nod to my father-in-law, Mark)
Spoonfuls of peanut butter and chocolate chips
Peanut butter on toast with honey and coconut
And there are many more…enjoy your secret single behavior with peanut butter. I know my furniture secretly enjoys the break it gets while my yappy mouth is busy chomping away at pb&j on crackers.
