I still make myself PB&J sandwiches. With grape jelly, of course.
Kristina - what, no bacon?
Niiiice.
We do things like banana slices, hide one raisin in it (because Ethan hates raisins, and we think it is funny to see him find the raisin), and sometimes we add Lay's potato chips for a nice crunch.
It's amazing how many variations one can find with a plain old pb sandwich.
My toddler and preschooler prefer peanut butter and nutella. At least it's on homemade whole wheat bread. That makes it healthy right? I feel like it is an accomplishment that they ate something at all :)
My kiddos would never want to eat my plain on pb&j if they ever ate at your house and got chocolate chips on their sandwich!!!! :) I will be sure to keep my eye out for that article here in a few years!! ;)
HAHAHAHA!!! I love it! Did you make sure to ask as you handed her them the plate..."now WHO are you going to thank in your Nobel Prize acceptance speech?"
I totally would have!
