Peanut Butter Jelly Cookies

photo-410-3

The comical bit is that me and my college roomie used to say this to each other when we were at a party that we found to be dull.  We would either whisper it in each others ear as we walked past or we’d mouth it to each other across the room and on to the next one we’d go.  That’s what “peanut butter jelly time” meant then.

Today, for the 26 year old me (for those of you who wanted to know) her ears perk up because it means cookies.

I’ll be 27 next month…wasn’t I just in college?  :/  Ah, I digress…
