Snacks, oh so important



Snacks are key to survival especially for kids. I'm always trying to figure out unique ideas for S rather than purchasing individually wrapped and processed food. Don't get me wrong, in a pinch when I have to run into a deli with a child melting down in a stroller it's do or die, so if crackers with mystery cheese will do the trick than ok. But if I can plan ahead and have a few things in my bag, it makes me feel so much better to fill S up with something reasonably healthy and delicious.

Today Dad had the forethought to toss in an apple and the rest of the Muenster cheese we had. It got me thinking that we often rely on the apple and cheese snack. It's such a great flavor combo in one's mouth and can change with the ingredients. I'm a tart apple and sharp cheddar girl, S seems to be on a cheddar and Gala apple kick.

More to come on snacks....
