Ode to Peanut Butter Pie
Ode to Peanut Butter Pie (and How I love Thee)
Ode to peanut butter pie,
And how I love thee,
For without you my life,
Would be seriously less tasty.
My love for peanut butter is no secret,
This savory sweet creamy confection,
Has been a staple in my diet,
Since practically my conception.
And no one can doubt my love of pie,
Considering I had stacked French Apple Pies instead of wedding cake.
What’s not to love about crust and filling,
Particularly when crumbles and crisps adorn?
But oh peanut butter pie,
You sinful delight,
How you haunt me.
I may only get you a few times a year,
But I savor every bite,
Every lick of cream,
Every crumb brings delight.
There’s nothing like peanut butter,
Whipped cream and cream cheese,
With a bowl full of sugar,
One bite brings me to my knees.
If goldfish gorge,
And guppies are greedy,
My tales with this pie and fork,
Can only be described as utterly beastly.
For if I was left alone,
With an entire pie,
Figure be damned,
My hips would cry.
I would eat and eat,
day after day,
meal after meal,
Until you’d say,
“For the love of Queen Bitty!
Stop eating pie!
Your face is as big as the moon
Your butt a mile wide!”
“I can’t stop!” I would shout,
Shoveling in slice after slice,
“It’s far too delicious
To worry about my pants size!”
Though this is a fond dream,
That haunts me at night,
Too rarely does this pie pass my lips,
It makes one want to cry.
Ode to peanut butter pie,
And how I love thee.
For without you,
I might be a size 3.
Stay tuned, Invisible Friends! We have a new Shimmer tomorrow! Stay tuned!

I’m not in love with peanut butter pie and can only wish to be a size 3 too.

Oh, that looks so good. I will have try to make this some time.

Oooh, I love peanut butter pie! I could really go for a slice now!

Yummy. I just ate breakfast, but still could go for a slice.

I need to replenish my PB at work…. Now, I’m hungry for it.
August 30th, 2011 at 7:11 am
I made a slow cooker PB fudge cake. Apparently, you can go wrong with PB and chocolate. It was baaaad.
August 30th, 2011 at 7:29 am
you act all sweet but you are so evil, LOL
thanks for the new craving.
August 30th, 2011 at 7:47 am
Mmm. PB. I’m going to end up like Homer Simpson because of you.
August 30th, 2011 at 7:51 am
I just had peanut butter toast and now I am wanting that pie!

I love love love peanut butter pie. In Amish country they have the best PB pie. It’s totally different than anything I have ever had. The filling has a pudding consistency…yum!

Peanut butter and pie. What a combination. Sign me up.

How is it I’ve never experienced the obvious joys of Peanut Butter Pie
August 30th, 2011 at 10:25 am
Beautiful ode, and that slice is so attractive!
August 30th, 2011 at 10:30 am
I have seen so many peanut butter pie lately…but have to admit that never tried one…shame on me
Will have to try it soon!
Hope you are having a fantastic week Blond Duck!

We are definitely on the same page about peanut butter pie!
I just stopped by from SITS to say hello; hope you find time to do the same.

LOL, this looks SO delicious. And now I want to copy your idea and write an ode to my favorite kind of ice cream (Chubby Hubby) with its peanut buttery-chocolatey yumminess.

I really enjoy your little foodie poems. You will have to include them in your cookbook someday.
I hope that you have a wonderful week!

Does Peanut Butter filled donuts count? I had the most delectable Peanut Butter Donuts at the farmer’s market yesterday I could just cry thinking about them. Yes, I said cry:)
Your odes are so heartfelt, duckie. Especially when you speak of peanut butter pie. I do hope you will share your delight the next time you actually devour one. Pie on the face is a good thing when it comes to peanut butter pie!!!
August 31st, 2011 at 1:07 pm
Did I miss my comment? Have you recently posted a PB Pie recipe that I missed?
August 31st, 2011 at 6:52 pm
I absolutely love PB…but my husband and daughter are both fairly indifferent. I call it a genetic defect. Thanks for stopping by today! I’m going to check out some more posts!
August 31st, 2011 at 9:33 pm
You crack me up! Now you reminded me that I have some Reese’s PB cups in the freezer waiting for me.
September 1st, 2011 at 6:37 am
Oh gawd, just to say it is already make my mouth water
September 1st, 2011 at 8:57 pm
You make me laugh, girl. I just tried PB pie for the first time a few weeks ago. It was SO delicious. Most definitely NOT something I’ll be making frequently though. Your slice looks beyond tempting!
