Peter Pan

In one of my therapy sessions......Yes, I'm in therapy! Lose your father on your first wedding anniversary. Let your "family" take you through what mine did after my Aunt died and then lose your mother/best friend all of the sudden like I did~THEN JUDGE ME....anyway, back to where I was:
In one of my therapy sessions, the counselor told me to do something that I loved to do as a kid that only my mother and I knew that I did....The very FIRST thing I thought of was Peter Pan Creamy Peanut Butter.
For as long as I can remember, that has been my FAVORITE peanut butter.  I even ate it a few years ago when there was a recall on it for salmonella (I did get sick and my Mama made me throw it out, lol).  It was always on Mama's grocery list.  If you ever knew my Mama or went to the store with her, you know she ALWAYS made a list.  When I ate it, I ate it straight out of the jar with a spoon! My Mama would always say, "you are gonna make yourself sick child."  I would say, "No I'm not. You want some?".....She would said, "Ugh! No!!" :)
I think I stopped eating it straight out of the jar when I was pregnant with Desmond...probably because at that time it did make me sick.  I would still eat it on wheat bread (no jelly), just an open face peanut butter sandwich.
So today, I decided to do that one thing that she and I knew about me....that I used to love to sit in the middle of my bed talking on my princess phone eating Peter Pan Creamy Peanut Butter out of the jar with a spoon....and you know what?  I'm SICK AS A DOG!!!! LMAO!! :-/...........I thank and appreciate all who will read.
P.S. ~ I'll elaborate on the "therapy" thing later...Bottom line for right now...Black people need to stop putting a stigma on maintaining our mental health [[IJS]]. <3
