Cooking instruction summary:

Measure out the peanut butter and honey into a large glass bowl, and microwave for 30 seconds.Stir together until well combined.Add oats, dates, coconut, flax and salt and mix until well coated.Cover and chill for 1 hour, and then scoop into 1 inch balls onto a Silpat lined baking sheet. I packed the oat mixture into a small Pampered Chef scoop so that it was firmly pressed together, and then released it from the scoop and rolled it a little with my hands. It's a little bit of a sticky job, but the chilling helps.Chill the balls for another hour, and then put them into a sealed container. I kept mine in the fridge so they would last longer, and we liked how they tasted cold. You can also freeze these for later use.

Food Joke

A father walks into a restaurant with his young son. He gives the young boy three nickels to play with to keep him occupied. Suddenly, the boy starts choking, going blue in the face. The father realizes the boy has swallowed the nickels and starts slapping him on the back. The boy coughs up two of the nickels, but keeps choking. Looking at his son, the father is panicking, shouting for help. A well dressed, attractive, and serious looking woman, in a blue business suit is sitting at a coffee bar reading a newspaper and sipping a cup of coffee. At the sound of the commotion, she looks up, puts her coffee cup down, neatly folds the newspaper and places it on the counter, gets up from her seat and makes her way, unhurried, across the restaurant. Reaching the boy, the woman carefully drops his pants; takes hold of the boy's' testicles and starts to squeeze and twist, gently at first and then ever so firmly. After a few seconds the boy convulses violently and coughs up the last nickel, which the woman deftly catches in her free hand. Releasing the boy's testicles, the woman hands the nickel to the father and walks back to her seat at the coffee bar without saying a word. As soon as he is sure that his son has suffered no ill effects, the father rushes over to the woman and starts thanking her saying, "I've never seen anybody do anything like that before, it was fantastic. Are you a doctor?" "No," the woman replied. "I'm with the IRS."
