Manteca de Mani!

Finally, after two weeks of searching, I found the hidden treasure in a health food store (Sylvan's inspiration) and I am no longer deprived of my main sustenance -- peanut butter.  OK, it is not Skippy (TM) Super Chunk (TM), but is it very creamy.  Now if we could just find some good whole wheat bread ("pan integral").  The better of the two loaves we have found has the consistency of, well, a good quality cordoroy fabric.  The other loaf I am tempted to send back to the sawmill from which its main ingregient apparently came.  We even tried to make French toast out of the sawdust loaf but it wouldn't absorb the liquid.  Muy mal.  Of course, we didn't even look for maple syrup to go with it but, being in the middle of summer down here, we are thrilled at being able to go through fresh peach and nectarine season again.  Muy bien.
