Fought with kitchen knives and skewers

Bah Bah Bah ba Bah.  My therapist said not to see you no more. . . What's up cats?  I hope your weekend was as awesome as mine was.   Actually, I was sick and you can count my misery by the crudded tissues littering the nothugs house.

Anyway, I needed something spicy and peanuty to get my through.  True story: a Netherlander looked at me in disgust when she discovered  I ate peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.  I told her she was spitting on the American flag.  Then she described the Netherlander equivalent to a peanut butter and banana sandwich.  To wit:  Bread, white Dutch cheese, bananas and ketchup grilled like a panini.  I love living in this time.  This is another guaranteed meal--eat it with rice because it is spicy!
