    OMG, Marni, my son, the one who is now a Marine did a similar thing when he was a senior in HS, when we lived in Boxborough. He ripped off his shirt and got our exchange student to do the same thing. Then, they answered the door to the "pitch," and said, "How can we help you?" Those guys went running.
    It was pretty funny to see two, half naked skinny cyclists doing this.

    I will eat way too much peanut butter if I allow myself to. I sometimes crave it when I want something salty.

    During college where it was cafeteria, all you can eat style ice cream, cakes, and cookies, I would eat a banana with peanut butter as a desert instead. Then I just tried to limit my pb intake to only if I had a banana to eat it with.

    I occassionally have it on toast now for late night snacks or breakfast when I'm out of cereal and eggs.

    However, trader joes has a great choice of natural pb that is very cheap too! I'm so happy I have a trader joes here now.

    ... I forget who mentioned the changing of the astrological signs... but I thought that was only for those born after 2009?

    I get cycle-related cravings. You know how there are all those things that "they" tell you not to eat preceding your period, salt and caffeine chief among them? I nearly always get salty snack food, latte, or dessert cravings.
    I woke up the other day and had a random near-craving for corn dogs. I haven't had a corn dog since elementary school. Maybe I was missing nitrites from my diet. (I ignored it, thankfully.)

    Funsize, I do something similar with PB--I spread it on apple slices.
    At least I don't leave slime trails.

    If you crave peanut butter eat it, just don't eat the whole jar. My pineapple upsidedown birthday cake is callin my name, I think ill have a slice. Too bad I don't have any nutella I love that stuff on waffles,with marshmallow fluff. I'm a girl I give in to my cravings once in awhile and I don't care about guilt.

    We lived in Acton! Our sons may have actually known each other and/or gone to school together. My son Richard Harang graduated in 1996. My favorite picture of him is him out in the snow barefoot in full jiu jitsu outfit wielding his katana doing a whirling sort leaping jump, mid air with his waist length hair flying out all around his head .
