Snacking On The Road

With Christmas fast approaching, it’s time for us to finalize our plans. Will we spend Christmas at home together? Will we visit our parents or will they come to us? Thank goodness they are only 45 minutes away. I don’t even want to think about having to take a long road trip or even a plane ride. *gets woozy*

If we haven’t eaten beforehand, it’s essential that we pick up something quick. I absolutely cannot function hungry. I can get rather listless and grumpy. Boogie? Quite tantrumatic*. Greg’s a tad stronger than us. He can hold out a little longer before singing the hungry headache song. Snacks for myself may include chips or pretzels, grapes, and iced tea. Greg’s not much of a traditional snacker. His snacks are entire meals. For Boogie, we pack graham or cheese crackers, freeze dried apples, and water, nothing too messy! I do so much cleaning at home, it’s immeasurable. The only mess that I expect to encounter in the car will be a mess that can be wiped up with a wet paper towel.

This holiday season, what snacks are you packing for family travels? How do you avoid or clean up (hopefully small) messes?
