You will never look at Peanut Butter & Jelly the same way again!
I am submitting a recipe to be hopefully included in a romantic cookbook. Do you think this will get me a spot?
Title of the recipe - Perfectly Paired PB & J
The table is set, a jaquard white linen, palest pink napkins. Two wine glasses and a single rose in a cut crystal vase in the center. One small plate, fine china edged with 18 karat gold. A bottle of Madeira or a favorite wine is waiting to be poured.
...
The recipe
The bread - Select a baguette that has a rustic crust and a plush malleable interior
Soft butter
Fresh peanut butter (spanish peanut or even almond butter)
Your favorite flavor of jelly - preferably something homemade from a fair

The romance in this recipe is all in the making.
He holds the peanut butter. She holds the jelly.
Two thick slices of the bread are cut with a serrated knife.
Each slice is buttered.
He takes his knife and scoops up some of the rich nut butter. Holding the bread flat and open, he spreads the nut butter on his slice, taking care to firmly and thoroughly, spread the butter out from the middle to each side, all the way to the edges. He keeps the nut butter on the edge as thick as in the middle. He wants to see this ooze from the sandwich. His tongue licks away any butter that has clung to his fingers. She watches this all the while.
She in turn, spoons the jelly sweetness onto her slice of bread, swirling the jelly all around until it begins to dribble over the edge ever so slightly. She licks and sucks the jelly from spoon and her finger tips and delights in the sticky sweet taste. Mmm. He doesn't take his eyes away from her.
It is then the joining begins. Simultaneously, each picks up their slice of bread, adorned with the nut butter and jelly. Holding them with the filling facing one another, they press them together, and feel the sweet sweet surrender as the two become one.
This loving couple now joined, kiss.
Each takes turn holding the sandwich while the other bites, chews and swallows. Sips of wine quench their thirst as they devour the deliciousness that has been created together. This continues until the sandwich is gone, sharing the last bite via a deep kiss.
Sigh...
