Peanut Butter Bandi / A Soft Sunset

 

Song:  Otterley

Today...

I had gotten this strange craving for Peanut Butter.

I had recently ordered this brand from Walmart online...

and they delivered it to my door in a couple of days time.

I love peanut butter...

but I don't want anything in it but peanuts.

Most of the store brands have all kinds of ingredients...

the worst of all is the fully hydrogenated oils...

besides having loads of sugar and sodium.

This brand has nothing in it but peanuts.

There is no salt...

sugar...

hydrogenated oils...

absolutely nothing...

but peanuts.

And it is delicious and very creamy.

I had ordered 10 lbs of it in 1 lb jars.

Anyway...

I was just lying in bed looking at my iPad...

and I just had to have some peanut butter.

I grabbed a large spoon...

and a plate for Bandi from which to lick the peanut butter.

I put dollop after dollop of peanut butter on her plate...

and she just went crazy licking it all up.

Bandi just loves peanut butter.

Between the dollops for Bandi...

I ate large spoonfuls of the peanut butter.

In a short period of time...

Bandi and I had finished off a whole pound of peanut butter...

about half a pound each.

There was just something in peanut butter that my body was craving.

I took Bandi out to her forest bathroom...

and I had seen the sun beginning to set...

so I went up to the loft to capture it.

The mountain in view is Rhyolite Mountain.

It is just the next mountain over from my home...

just South and slightly East of me.

As the sun continued to set...

the clouds opposite it began to turn a pastel yellow and pink.

The soft pastel pink of the Southeastern clouds was a nice ending to the sunset.

This weekend I will be going to the Cripple Creek Ice Festival

(It is small as Ice Festivals go...

but there are going to be food vendors there :)

During the last town event...

they had this great taco truck there.

I am hoping to see it this time as well.

Their tacos were crunchy shelled...

with just the perfect ratio of meat to shredded lettuce and cheese...

and their verde was so good drizzled atop them.

I know I can eat a dozen of them...

they were just that delicious.
