Peanut Butter Woes

With the recent outbreak of salmonella related to peanut butter, we checked our stash and -- low and behold! -- we are lucky winners of the dreaded batch starting with "2111." I've single-handedly eaten more than half of our big jar and haven't been sick yet, but it's not worth the risk.

I might have rethought that hasty decision to throw it away, however, if I realized that every jar of regular peanut butter at the grocery store had been removed from the shelves. So we've been peanut-butter-less for a few days now. It's been tough. Especially when the ice cream and brownies come out.

Speaking of... the brownies are ready. Special thanks to our friends Patti & Rodrick Rhoads for providing such a nice meal for us the other day!
