Early Morning Ramblings…oh, and a recipe

On the morning of my recent grocery day, I found cereal, but no milk; jam, but no toast; syrup, but no waffles! (And only one K-cup! Thank goodness it was grocery day!). I surveyed the pantry, wondering what I could creatively mix together. A box of brownie mix…Perfect! One must start their day with a serving of protein, so I decided to add a peanut butter topping! To break up the sweetness a little, I sprinkled coarse sea salt over all of it. The entire pan was devoured within the day! I’d call it a win.

Spreading peanut butter on those brownies, got me to thinking what a staple peanut butter is and the many uses for it. I started hysterically laughing, as I did my Bubba Gump “shrimp talk”, substituting, of course with peanut butter! (This is what happens when your fur baby wakes you at 4 a.m.!). Here’s my list of ways I use peanut butter. You MUST read it as Bubba would! LOL!

PB and Jelly, PB milkshake, PB on vanilla wafers, PB cake, PB on celery, PB by the spoonful, PB toast, PB biscuit and syrup, PB and pretzels, PB cookie, PB brownies, PB and banana, pineapple chunks and peanut butter (a pregnancy craving)…as Bubba would say, “that’s about it”.

I hope it gave you a little laugh. We’ve almost made it to the weekend! Oh, and I almost forgot to give you the recipe!

Bake 1 box of brownies. While warm, spread peanut butter all over the top. Sprinkle with coarse sea salt.
