Current mood: Hor d'Oeuvrey, Red-Bullish.

For all you on-the-go types who think you're too busy to make a healthy lunch, here's one of my favorite recipes. I find this works best during the week, around, say, 1 p.m.

1 spoonfull of peanut butter, and then some more, but not really another full spoonfull. Just more. And it doesn't matter how big a spoon. Go with your gut.

1 spoonfull of jelly. I like strawberry, especially if actual strawberries are present, and not just represented by red.

Put it in a bowl, and stir. It'll turn kind of a pinky-beige carpety kind of color. Don't discard the spoon. Leave it in the bowl with your goo.

Get some crackers. I use wheat saltines, but you're welcome to use whatever kind you like (as well as your own bowl, because I only have like four). Ritz don't work though. Not sturdy enough for dipping (that's what you'll be doing), and too buttery or something. Not good.
Anyway, then you eat your crackers and goo. The best part is the last bite, which you'll find in the spoon. It's sort of like hors d'Oeuvres, for kids.

Works really well when paired with a Red Bull, and then off to sleep, for 45-60 minutes, on the couch, with the dog. Upon waking should feel cranky, unrested, and dubious about putting digusting bowl into the dishwasher.
