We always used to eat the sugar sandwich: a slice of bread spread with margarine (mom didn’t buy butter) and coated with sugar. Cinnamon optional. We would pour about 2 Tablespoons of sugar on the buttered surface and then shake it gradually down to get an even, thick coating. No wonder my brother was diagnosed as hyperactive!
My mother used to make me “Butterfly Toast”: Toast with margarine & brown-sugar-cinnamon, cut in an X, putting the opposite parts together to make 2 butterflies. I make butterfly toast for my daughters now and they love it (particularly my younger one, whose nickname is “Butterfly”).
Yup, I just did this a few min ago. I was looking forward to toast with jelly, but the actual amount of jelly I had was so miniscule it wouldn’t be enough to fill one half of a piece of toast, so I just went with peanut butter.
Um. Don’t they have recycling bins or tras cans to throw empty jars in? If it’s being reused, why not put it somewhere where people won’t be deceived into wanting something they can’t have? Lol

But, Linus, you forgot about the peanut butter!

A bread and butter sandwich is much better anyway.

The first has some joke hidden in there somewhere, and the second makes me hungrier.

It isn’t my stomach that wants it, it’s my mouth. My stomach can’t taste anything and doesn’t care what I send down.

That goes for anything. Once I got myself all hungry for a few slices of pizza, then found out there was no pizza left in the freezer. :(

I know how Linus feels; there’s been times I’ll get a craving for something and discover that someone has beaten me to the punch.

Just make sure you use Butternut Bread.

Jelly bread sandwich? It’s just jelly sandwich. Only a goofball would say jelly bread.

I shared a house with two other bachelors back in the
1980’s..I learned a long time ago not to have any hope
of finding anything in the fridge except beer and condiments.If we weren’t out of cereal, we were out of milk and, vice versa.

It took me a while to get my wife and kids to save a little milk for my coffee. I was surprised that other people did not do that.
