As a friend said on her Facebook page a couple of weeks ago, "Sometimes you just need a good ol' PB&J sandwich to set things in order. You know what I'm sayin'?"  Indeed! Sometimes you do.  Sometimes you need a simple PB&J to get your Gratitude Attitude back in check. There's something about a PB&J that settles me down and reminds me there is a bigger picture than the tiny little dot I am obsessing over.  Who knew that a PB&J held that much power?! But it does! 

I was five and at a birthday party at Wendy's.  This was the Wendy's that had tables that looked like old-time advertisements which I was always fascinated by and felt sad when they went away.  But I digress. Back to the point.  I was five and I'm pretty sure I had not seen anyone do this yet but I thought to myself, "Huh.  I wonder what a french fry dipped in the chocolate frosty would taste like." So I dipped.  And fell in love for the rest of my life.  To this day I consider the combo to be a comfort food. While I am not a big fan of chocolate overall I am also a fan of the peanut butter and chocolate combo.  That also is like comfort food for me.  The sweet and salty combo I consider to be God's gift to us.  I'm grateful for it.  I know, that seems so...shallow.  But somedays you just need some comfort and God is good to provide it in a myriad of ways. Today it was the sweet and salty combo of a frosty and fries.
