Will your pangs of hunger be anything equal to the pangs of REMORSE when you see the huge eyes of your starveling infants?
I promised the housemate that if he bought peanut butter I wouldn't scoff it with a spoon, last week (rather, sensibly save it for topping bread products). I then scoffed some of the new jar with a spoon, and wrote I LIED in the remaining smooth bit with a fork tine for him to find later. I wish I'd taken a photo, I think it was my finest hour.
I deduce, my dear Watson, that your peanut butter is smooth, since if you tried to write in our peanut butter the letters would not stand out against the crunchy bits. I also see a flaw in your otherwise brilliant jape - it depends on you not succumbing to further temptation, at least with the same jar.
It was crunchy! You can still get a pretty good imprint. But yes, I then had to avoid demolishing it. (Am now imagining Holmes saying: 'You know my methods. You've read my methodology chapter.')

Hope the children can be successfully fobbed off.

Have replaced stocks of Chocolate Buttons. Will have to wait for another conference to acquire little packets of biscuits.
