So, some of you may be thinking... why Dill Pickle and Peanut Butter Sandwich (DPPBS)... that's a good question... when I thought "Hey, I should start a blog" my next thought was "but it has to have some sort of original title" right?
For quite a long time now, one of my favorite kinds of sandwiches is the DPPBS. It sounds weird, I can TOTALLY relate to that... but to all you doubters out there, I simply ask... have you ever tried it?
The DPPBS is really more than an awkwardly good snack, it's an effigy of my life. I've always been a "beat of my own drum" or a "pave my own way" kind of girl. The DPPBS however, slightly changed my life. It gave me the realization that sandwiches, first of all, could go outside the norm. Second, a normal think like a sandwich, could be sweet, salty and full of texture, just like my life. It could also become only appealing the daring and truly adventurous or dedicated, which was also a perk. I've not seen myself as a "normal" girl since about 1995, so the idea of this sandwich, at this time of life, representing my life, really just seemed... welll... NORMAL....
The DPPBS is, in a sense, very similar to the chocolate covered pretzel... it is salty and it is sweet and it is absolutely delicious.
In a greater sense, I have realized that the PB part of the sandwich can be mixed in just about ANY sandwich that involves a protein and still have delicious results... which only adds to my conclusion that if you never try something? You're probably wrong.
I LOVE the DPPBS and many other variations on the sandwich, and hope that others will also try it someday.
But more importantly? I hope that others will eventually read this and know that life happens, but keep trying. Even if something seems weird or wrong, maybe it's worth a second look and maybe it's a chance to try something out of the norm.
