Pluggers by Rick McKee for October 02, 2024

Yep, time for mine.

With cold milk!

Fresh Garden Tomato Sandwich with Mayo for me :-)

I use fruit preserves instead of jelly. I’m hoping that there’s a little more nutritive value in preserves.

Just had one a few days ago…

JIF Creamy for my wife, store-brand crunchy for me. We both get home-made jam, currently Hollywood Plum.

Indiana Jones is a welcome regular.

Any comfort food works for me.

The NYT Cooking section had a recipe for grilled peanut butter and jam sandwiches.

PB&J was my stepdad’s (RIP) favorite.

Grape jelly!

Crunchy Peanut Butter and Dill Pickle.

PB with hamburger dill pickle chips…mmm, mmm, mmm…even Ain’t Bee can’t win that one…

Maybe don’t drip it all over the rug, Gran’pa?

Sheesh! We can’t have nothin.

Please leave it on your picnic bench. I’ll be over in short order.

yuck. dear ol’ mom fed us so many of those that i still can’t stand them all these decades later…

Real comfort food.

My brother Mick would annoyingly order a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, no matter what kind of restaurant we took him to. His excuse was he was five years old.

One childhood pleasure that never get old.

When I was a child I had half a peanut butter sandwich (no jelly) for lunch – EVERY DAY – whether school or not.

Sometime around maybe 3rd or 4th grade mom decided that maybe I was hungry at lunch and not telling her. She sent an entire sandwich. I brought the second half home with me.

When Covid started I was back to eating peanut butter sandwich every day for lunch – though I do eat an entire sandwich now.

And once or twice I tried having same for dinner – figured 2 sandwiches for dinner would do fine as I am picky eater and don’t always want what he wants for dinner (and I end up cooking two meals) – but he insists it is not enough food to eat for dinner and I cannot have even 2 peanut butter sandwiches for dinner.

“Yummm” is right.
