Staff Pick: B. Happy Peanut Butter

Marlee before her
viaggio in Italia
Big congrats to Miss Marlee who earned her degree in business communications last summer after an earlier degree in art history. With a 3.9 GPA, she had earned a break...and she took it with a three week adventure across Italy last fall. "I think we had to sprint to every single plane, train, and bus we ever took," she remembers and laughs.

Taking in the art was just part of the culture Marlee digested. She ate...very well. And yet, this dedicated peanut butter fan still felt cravings for a little bit of Indiana. "B. Happy Dream Big Peanut Butter to be specific," she says. "I literally just eat it with a spoon...or chips, or ice cream, or whatever that will allow me to consume it fast enough. It is good for brunch, lunch, and dinner."

B. Happy Peanut Butter handcrafts their crave-able concoctions in small batches just up the road in Zionsville, Indiana. Find Marlee's favorite "Dream Big" variety and their entire line up at Goose the Market (but come quick or call ahead since these jars are literally flying off the shelf!):

"Dream Big" Honey Roasted Peanut Butter with white chocolate chips and pretzels
"Go Lucky" Peanut Butter with milk chocolate and toffee
"Happy Trails" Peanut Butter with flax seed, raisins, and chocolate chips
"Snickerdoodle" Peanut Butter with snickerdoodle popcorn
"Keep Smunchy" Plain Peanut Butter
"Joy To The World:" a seasonal release Peanut Butter with white and dark chocolate and dried cranberries
