Peanuts

I love peanut butter. a lot.

Luckily for me, Senegal is pretty big into peanuts too.  We roast 'em, grind them into flour, mash them into butter, bake them into brittle (pictured at left), etc.

To get my peanut butter fix, my old skippy jars accompany me to the market about once every week or two to get filled up for about a $.50 a jar.  My current favorite combo is then to mix the peanut butter with some honey and eating that straight up or spread it on some bread at breakfast or bananas for an afternoon snack.

But do not let the fact that I have easy access to locally made, all natural peanut butter deter you from sending me processed skippy from home - I love the sugary stuff too.
