fish friday

It's Friday, it's still Lent and every good Catholic knows what that means.
Today meat sandwiches are out. You could do fish, but what if you're tired of tuna in your lunchbox?

Cheese sandwiches are always nice. Grilled cheese is nicer. But for standard lunchtime fare that travels I say peanut butter. Hold the jelly.

peanut butter sandwich
ingredients
2 slices of white bread
3 tablespoons of peanut butter [use more if you like]

Using a butter knife, a spoon or your fingers, spread the peanut butter on slice of bread, top with remaining slice of bread and cut sandwich into four pieces.
For variations on the theme, try sprinkling a little sugar on the peanut butter or spreading a thin layer of marshmallow cream on one of the slices of bread and then smash this into the peanut butter side.

Feel like you're five again? So what. It's good to stay young at heart.

Why no jelly?
I can't say for sure, but this goes way back to my childhood where I developed a hatred for mushy fruit, cooked fruit, canned fruit, syrupy fruit dessert and fruit in general.
In my world, serve the peanut butter pure.
