Hmmm, I partial to cream cheese as well, with tomatoes, obviously not with blueberries. I like pb and jam on toast.

Just to set the record straight and to put an end to all this bickering about the horror of the blueberry bagel laden with peanut butter, no, the bagel was not blueberry -- plain ol' sesame seed.

It was quite good. First I put a fair amount of butter on and let it soak into the bagel for a second or two, then prodigious amount of peanut butter. I try to find the type of bagels where the hole is sealed otherwise the peanut butter melts and pours through the hole and onto the Archie comic book which is my preferred reading in the morning.

And as far as Montana's suggestion that I undergo some sort of shock-treatment: Been there, done that.

So, SP, by your reasoning, all that taste good's gonna send us to hell?

Not for the faint-hearted!

timtams are, in the words of a now-addicted north american:

kinda of a weird sandwiched wafer thing with a cream in the center coated in chocolate. The first one you eat you think to yourself "huh. what's the big deal", then you have a second and you're like "hmm.. not bad", then "these are pretty good". Later, in bed, you start shaking and can't sleep because you're obsessing over them. and _then_ some twonky aussie says "nibble a teeny bit off each end, then use it as a straw to suck up some Port until you can just taste the port. Then sit back and eat the port-soaked tim-tam.". It's like mainlining crack. then they go to the airport leaving you with exactly 1 tim-tam.

I do not understand this peanut butter/bagel thing at all. The proper way to eat a bagel IMO is lightly toasted with a shmear of butter and cream cheese, in your jammies, in bed on Sunday morning, while reading a big fat newspaper. And flavored bagels, especially blueberry, are just wrong!

And not just ANY newspaper. Only the New York Times will do. If it's the Book Review section, that's even better!!

Naw, do the Sunday Times crossword, but, of course, you'll need someone to get coffee for ya, an' you'll be there 'til late afternoon . . .

I'm not the only one who likes peanut butter covered bagels. Our little feathered friends love them too.

I would strongly encourage all members of A2K to coat a bagel in peanut butter, sprinkle generously with seeds, attach a string, and then hang the bagel from a tree branch.

Not only will you get some good exercise, both physically and mentally, but the birds will benefit from your efforts.

Gus- You forgot one step. You need to put a sign on the bagel........for birds only................squirrels stay home!

Squirrels can't read.

After the birds have been served, I'll have a toasted sesame seed bagel - toasted twice please - a little schmeer of butter, then a bigger schmeer of fresh cream cheese - not that stuff in the block from the grocery store - and I'll have two slices of beefsteak tomato with lotsa salt and pepper on the side.

Thanks for setting up the bagel bar, dear Kochtopf. It was badly needed here.

Ok, I suppose you're wondering, Why the hell did Gus put a Husky on a bagel thread?

Let me explain. I had gone outside to hang the peanut butter bagel from the branch so I could take a picture and post it for you people. As I was taking the picture I noticed this Husky, sitting on the grass, watching me with a curious look in his eye.

I think it's the Derdoski's dog. They live on route 32, about five miles from here. That ol' dog gets around.

But, anyway, on a whim I took a picture of the dog and have now decided to post him as well as the bagel hanging from the tree.

I hope this makes everything clear.

Looks like the husky has a piece of said bagel between his paws, Gustav. Are you sure the bagel was still hanging when you took the picture?

0 Replies

Yep, Gus, it does. It explains a lot. You are obviously starting the morning with a big Bob-Marley-style reefer. You'll be posting pics of cheese-cake pizza soon.

Do you notice the snake in the background, Big Dice? As I was taking the picture I saw the deadly green snake warily approaching the unsuspecting dog. I dropped the camera and raced toward the dog, flinging him to the side at the precise moment the snake attacked. Its fangs sank deep into my leg, but fortunately (I'm not sure if I've mentioned this before) it was my wooden leg.

I laughed and tossed the snake into the well. The dog scampered home and the animals around the barnyard, momentarily silenced by the commotion, returned to their normal activity.
