March 1, 2021: National Peanut Butter Lovers Day

Did you know March 1, 2021: National Peanut Butter Lovers Day. I’ve always loved Peanut Butter. In our home Peanut Butter is a staple. My favorite Peanut Butter is Peter Pan Crunchy but my teeth have gotten bad and now, I have to eat Smooth Peanut Butter.

I do eat Jif a lot as well if its on sale instead of Peter Pan but I try and stick to Peter Pan because this was Suzzie’s favorite. As for Charlie he doesn’t like Peanut Butter but David does.

A snack I keep in our home is Lance Peanut Butter Crackers because there healthy. I can have Peanut Butter Crackers on my diet with a glass of Milk. Or a bottle of water.

Did you know Peanut Butter Cookies are my favorite cookies. This evening while David is at work Charlie and I plan on making cookies to surprise David with. I just hope we have some left when he comes home.
