Hey! Sorry guys I haven’t updated for a week. I’ve been really busy moving this past week, and I haven’t even had a chance to sit down at the computer!
Anyway, the family who sold us their house was extremely nice, generous, and helpful! They knew I loved to cook, so they left some goodies in the kitchen that they didn’t want/need anymore. One of the goodies included a panini maker! It looked like it had never been used before because it was extremely clean, and it still had the sticker on it.
I had been on a pb&j kick the last week or so, so I wanted to see what it would taste like panini style. The result: a warm and toasty thin bread with warm peanut butter enveloped with jelly oozing out the sides. Yeah, it was that good.
PB&J Panini
~This sandwich is a mix of 2 childhood favorites: peanut butter and jelly and grilled cheese.
- 2 slices bread of choice (I used Nature’s Own Whole Wheat)
- 2 Tablespoons Peanut Butter (I used Kirkland’s organic signature)
- 1 Tablespoon all-fruit jelly or sliced bananas
Make a pb and j (or pb and b) like you normally would, and throw it in the panini press for a minute or so. Enjoy!
Here’s a pic from our new house below. My sister and I saw this strange bird walking across our lawn, and had to take a picture. Sorry about the screened in porch in the way. I didn’t want to get too close and scare it away.
Thought-provoking, mind-prodding question of the day:
What is the strangest thing that you saw walking through your yard?
I know I’ve seen a few. One time a saw the fattest squirrel eating an acorn on my backyard slide.
That IS a strange bird! Did it fly, or just walk around? What a picture! I once saw a “herd” of deer going across our back yard! I counted 34 head deer — mamas, papas with lots of horns, and babies! It was morning, and they were on their way back to the forest near my house to sleep for the day!
Love seeing your new dishes! Enjoy your new home!
i love the lines in the bread from the grill!!! that looks really fun 🙂
omg i saw 3 racoons walknig in my yard.. one mama and 2 babies.. it was different.. not so much strange, more cute. hmm strange tho? prolly my dad wearing biking spandex haha, now that was strange!

That would be a Sandhill Crane. I have a family of them that eat the bird seed in my backyard. The strangest thing I have seen in my backyard would have to be the crane when I first moved to the south. After awhile you get used to them though. They are really cute when they are babies.
Have a great weekend. 🙂
A sandhill crane? ok. Thanks! There were two of them walking through my birdfeeder, and they had the funniest walk!
