I couldn't help commenting on the following, said by the lovely rachel playforth: - i have

actually had an ex-boyfriend shout at me (in genuine horror more than in anger) for buttering a slice of toast before applying his precious bloodypeanut butter. because, apparently, 'it's already in effect buttered - that's why it's called peanut BUTTER'. twat.

sorry, gonna have to pull rank here and stick up for rachel's ex: besides the fact that british peanut butter tasts like dull sand, peanut butter toast does not in fact need butter. go find yourself a proper jar of american peanut butter (I recommend jif), make some toast, spread, and enjoy. mmm... of course, jelly (or jam) toast *requires* butter. don't even get me started on marmite. I think my dad used it to grout our shower tiles. and while we're on the subject: some guy in oklahoma (I think) is test-marketing individual pre-wrapped slices of peanut butter... more proof that the only necessary parts of america are the coasts. and chicago. by the by, I've been listening to the aislers set a lot recently, and I recommend them to you all. also, is anyone is new york going to the coney island music festival thing put on by the village voice this weekend? http://www.villagevoice.com/siren/ off to make myself some toast, eric ____________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
