Do I butter you up with a cheery post. I know on which side my bread is buttered, she thought. Since making a big move to a new house, I have been eating a lot of peanut butter sandwiches or peanut butter stuffed pretzels because it is easy to grab when I am busy with other stuff around here. I like peanut butter, creamy peanut butter, crunchy peanut butter too. 🙂
And finding all the nooks and crannies in which to stuff carefully place all our belongings. This often requires the use of our folding step ladder to reach the high places.
I did have good news this past week. My older brother came home from the hospital and I was able to speak with him briefly. It was so good to hear his voice. I told him he is a tough guy because he came through it. Feel the need to keep even closer touch with him.
Many of us are getting our COVID shot series completed just in time for the attack of the mutant variants.
We have our own California variant. Although, I just read an article that said the UK variant is expected to dominate in the US. We could have battle of the variants.
Stream of Consciousness Saturday, #SOCS, is hosted by Linda G Hill. The prompt word for today is ‘butter.’

The Turtles would definitely win the battle of the variants…

They do look pretty tough.

On the one hand I had forgotten about the peanut butter song. On the other, I remember it going through my head many times over the years. Apparently it’s from 1961.

That sounds about right, the 60s. It popped into my head when I started writing this post.

This will be like the Beatles vs. The Beach Boys.
Be careful on those ladders.

Ha, ha, good one. I do try to be mindful when climbing the ladder. It has really come in handy. Thank you, Dan.

Oh, thank you Jill. I did not know if I would be able to talk to him so soon. But it was really great.

I got a chuckle at the mutant variants being plastic ninja turtles that we could easily kick across the room. We definitely need that kind of humor. And I’m very happy your brother is home!

When I hear the word mutant those ninjas pop into my head. I am glad they got the effect I was looking for. Thank you, JoAnna ❤

I’m not worried about infectious variations. It’s the lethality that’s important, IMO. So, I tune off the TV and don’t change a thing. 😉

I do not want to get stressed about it but still take precautions. Just feel like I needed some levity.

Your levity worked a treat Deborah! Have you made peanut butter cookies? My favourite when they’re made ‘properly’ …

I probably made them a long time ago, but now you’ve got me wanting some. Do you make them from scratch? Thank you for stopping by, Susan. 🙂

I meant to say good news about your older brother being on the mend Deborah. I’ve made peanut butter cookies before but have never got them ‘right’ the way others do –

Thank you, Susan. I hope he keeps going in the right direction. I haven’t been making cookies because we would eat too many. I don’t think I ever made peanut butter cookies from scratch, just a mix.
