Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich (It’s G-Dub’s Fav, yo)
Peanut butter: Bwog suggests non-hydrogenated. The kind with the oil floating on top.
Jelly
Bread
Knife (be careful!)
Bwog is pretty sure that G-Bush sings the classic song “Peanut Butter and Jelly” to remember how to make this strong-hold sandwich. Bwog’s chef uses it too:
First you take the peanuts
And you crunch ’em,
You crunch ’em
First you take the peanuts
And you crunch ’em,
You crunch ’em
For your peanut, peanut butter
And jelly
Peanut, peanut butter
And jelly
Then you take the grapes
And you squish ’em,
You squish ’em
Then you take the grapes
And you squish ’em,
You squish ’em
For your peanut, peanut butter
And jelly
Peanut, peanut butter
And jelly
Then you take the bread
And you spread it,
You spread it
Then you take the bread
And you spread it,
You spread it
For your peanut, peanut butter
And jelly
Peanut, peanut butter
And jelly
Then you take your sandwich
And you eat it,
You eat it
Then you take your sandwich
And you eat it,
You eat it
‘Cause its good, peanut butter
And jelly
Good, peanut butter
And jelly
First you take the peanuts
And you crunch ’em,
Then you take the grapes
And you squish ’em,
Then you take the bread
And you spread it,
Then you take your sandwich
And you eat it
‘Cause its good, peanut butter
