You can make some blackberry syrup if you boil the fruit with some sugar a and a splash of lemon juice. Add water to get the consistency you want.

Peanut butter and banana sandwiches are delicious. Has your sister actually tried one?

If you want a change you can use a left over pancake as a flat bread. My kids consider it a treat to get PB and banana in a pancake wrap. Cream cheese and any soft fruit also works as a filler (peach, pears, mashed berries, apple sauce etc).

PB and Banana is too a meal. Since I read your challenge a week ago, all in one evening, I have been eating PB and banana sandwiches. I used to eat them every once in awhile but I have had at least 4 in the last week because it sounded so good. Yum, yum!!

Your meals are starting to look better. And hurray for foraging! Please look up “lamb’s quarters” and “purslane.” These leafy wild vegetables are universally available. Even a light sprinkle of either added to other dishes adds nutrition, including the folic acid that your meals look like they’ve been missing. We collect so much lamb’s quarters that we freeze some for later in the year. Mulberries might be ready where you are as well. They are best when there has not been a rain within the previous 4 days.

I disagree with your sister on the banana’s and PB. It is a meal. Elvis used to eat them as a fried sandwich. PB&J is considered a meal, so should PB&B.

Wow blackberries already? Ours are not ready until August/September in Northern Coast California. I actually still have some left in the freezer from last year. You need to make a cobbler or pie! Then forage for some vanilla ice cream to go with it!

The blackberries looked delicious. The hot dog, not so much. Your sister is using this challenge to get you to cook. Why aren’t you eating tomorrow?
