Day: June 4, 2010

Well this is a first. I get to the hotel and am sitting alone in this room as I cannot find anyone!

Today marks the first time I have tried a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Word got around the office that I had never had one so Nicki (the new student) took it upon herself to make a sandwich for me.

Now for those who know me quite well, this will come as no surprise as there are a list of common items that everyone has eaten that I have not. But I figure “What’s the rush? I have my whole life to experience these things!”

That being said, I must say I give the sandwich two thumbs up! At first I thought it was a little strange…a jelly sandwich (for the most part)? No thanks! I bit into it and was overwhelmed by the jelly (which wasn’t that bad) but the beauty was how the peanut butter sneaks up on you saying “Hey buddy! I’m in here too!” and lo and behold, an ultimate combination forms!

A historical moment for the diary of my life. I’m sure my grand kids will be saying “Pappy! I can’t believe you ate your first PB&J sandwich at 31 years old!”
