Hubs would probably have a good laugh just from the title of this one alone. I am a huge peanut butter fan, putting it on everything under the sun. Two pieces of toast with peanut butter, heaping mounds of peanut butter, and a banana, are my go-to lunch. I also like to bake with it, and to be quite honest hubs could do without. I mean he likes it, once in a while, mostly just on toast though. Or in a peanut butter cup, but baking not so much. That is okay, all the more for me and the kiddos. In fact, this is yet again a recipe hubs didn’t even try. It got eaten much to quickly. Another reason for the giggles, Amish. I quite enjoy reading books set in Amish country, or at least I did a few years back, one of my many reading fazes I went through. It certainly is a fascinating lifestyle, definitely not for me, but I would like to visit sometime. So for now I peruse the cookbooks, and there are certainly always yummy little tidbits to be found.
