Do as I say, not as I do. And STOP watching me!
June 3, 2008 – 11:03 pmI’ve just finished making CJ a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, and I dip my spoon in the peanut butter to sneak a mouthful.
Mmmm… creamy dreamy goodness.
Peanut butter straight from the jar is totally my weakness.
What I don’t realize (until it’s too late) is that CJ is watching me.
His eyes pop open as a whole new world of infinite possibilities flash before them.
If mommy can eat peanut butter straight from the jar… just THINK what else you can do!
This is not good.

Did you double dip? That’s the only sin.

Me, I hate pb but my husband LOVES it and is constantly eating it out of the jar with a spoon. My three-year-old now asks for peanut butter… with a spoon. I recently discovered that my husband also eats the nutella out of the jar… as my daughter now also asks for a spoon when I take the jar down. sigh.

I LOVE Pb&j sandwiches.
And as long as there’s no double dipping, it’s all good. Really though, there’s an allowable amount of bug poop and parts in peanut butter. Like double dipping is worse?

That does not make you a bad mother. Just don’t yell at him when he does it. :0 :)

This is the reason that we have a tiny jar of peanut butter that is labeled BACON. He can double dip spoonfuls as much as he wants and no one but him will get grossed out.
I hate peanut butter - except in cookies - so it isn’t a loss for me. But he and daddy go through that and cereal like water so the BIG jar is only for sandwhiches, and toast.
Saves a lot of ’splaining.

Did you follow it up with a “just this one time . . .” and then let him dip his finger in too???
