Our 85 year old friend, Wilburn, came over today. We went on a walk, ate nuts and drank 7up on a blanket, waded in the Minnehaha Creek, then went back to our house for dinner. While we were eating, Wilburn said, "I was reading the other day about a woman who suggested a very healthy and interesting thing to eat."
Expecting the unexpected, we said, "Oh yes?"
"Yes," he said, "She said that she ate peanut butter, and jelly, on bread."
Uhhhhh....
"Do you mean, a peanut butter and jelly sandwich?" we asked.
"No, peanut butter with jelly, on bread."
It went back and forth like this for a little bit, until we said, "You've never heard of that...eating peanut butter and jelly together?" and he said, "No, I've eaten jelly and I've eaten peanut butter, but I've never had peanut butter and jelly together."
"Weird," we said. We were both raised eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches; Squeeze even piped in with, "and I eat them at least once a week".
Wilburn said, "Yes, I'll be very interested to try that. It sounds good!"

That's so funny! Out of 85 years of living you would think he would have ran into this before :)
