Halloween Request for Erin

PB and Shady would officially like to ask our cowpea, Erin, to do us a chop and dress her dear son, Nicholas, in a peanut costume for Halloween.

Here are two name brand options:

Mulllins Square Peanut Baby Costume



Peanut Infant Costume (too bad they don't make them for ripe nuts)



Please Erin! Fulfill this spoon dream!

Today in History

What is this Valentine's Day that I keep hearing everyone talk about?

To Shady, February 14th is an important day because:

1817: Frederick Douglass' Birthday (read A Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave or Life and Times of Frederick Douglass if you haven't already - life-changing reads! Makes Shady want to be a better peanut.)
1920: League of Women Voters was established
1950: USSR and China sign peace treaty
1963: First successful kidney transplant
2008: Mets pitchers and catchers report for spring training



The best "love"-related quote today - Service is love in work clothes.

Go out there, nuts and pay it forward!
