Impatience

I have decided that I am impatient.

Why? Okay, only those people who don't know me well will say that. Those who know me will wonder what took me so long to admit it! I just got a hankering for an Uncrustable. Have you ever eaten one? I never would have if Ky hadn't been around. She dislikes sandwiches. I don't know that she has ever actually eaten a sandwich, but she is extremely sensitive to food textures. She's not quite a "food can't touch" type of person, but she's close. When she was young, she threw up every time we had spaghetti. I eventually realized that it wasn't because she was ill, but she simply couldn't tolerate the texture/taste mixture. Anyway, somehow she had an Uncrustable. She liked it, so I got some more. I eventually tasted them and I agree. They are good.

Uncrustables are pretty weird, though. They are a blob of jelly surrounded by an even layer of peanut butter which is surrounded by two slices of bread crimped all the way around in a circle to keep everything neat and tidy. No crusts, either. (I LOVE crusts, but that's a different story.) Uncrustables are meant to be kept in your freezer and you get one out and it thaws in about half an hour.

As I said, I got a hankering for an Uncrustable. Got it out of the freezer and carried it around. I don't really want to know what would happen if I microwaved it. It would be a cool experiment, though! I finally ate the thing frozen. It just took too long and I was thinking about all the pb & j goodness. MmmmmmmmGOOD!

It's not really very good frozen.

Now you know and you don't have to try it yourself.

I think I need some Diet Dr. Pepper!

Okay, so I have microwaved Uncrustables before. If you put them in for about five seconds on full blast on one side, and then five seconds on full blast on the other side, and then you stick it in the refridgerator (the jelly gets warm while the rest is thawing), it works pretty well. It doesn't speed the process up very much, but you at least feel productive.

And yes, I have eaten sandwiches before. I just get bored eating them. Can anyone say "nice crunchy layer of potato chips?"

And I do actually like spaghetti. I just wasn't used to eating really loooooong noodles when I was little.

Thanks for the info. I'm sure I'll find myself in the same situation again. Have you ever eaten them frozen before? It is majorly weird.

Potato chips on a sandwich?!?!?!?!

As for the spaghetti, all I can say is "really???" I only wish you had TOLD us you didn't like the long noodles instead of throwing up each time they were served! I'm glad you like it now!
