If I Could Splice Two Trees Together

If I were a horticulturalist like Sam Van Aken I would splice a banana tree with a strawberry tree. Strawberries are not tree-grown? Okay. Then I would splice a banana tree with a peanut tree. If I could find a butter cow from the Iowa State Fair I would set it under this new bana-peanut-a tree For there is nothing better than a peanut butter and banana sandwich And I eat butter on everything I did not know that about peanuts. I would splice a banana tree with a pistachio tree over my butter cow.

A chocolate, peanut butter and banana sandwich might be better. Let me know and I'll buy one.

It is pretty tasty. I can tell you from experience. But add some whipped cream too.

Thank you David. I am in a pretty foul mood today; having suffered with shingles or staph infection since Wednesday. I already have taken off work tomorrow morning. It is excruciatingly painful whatever it is, so I am truly MAD.
