Snackin'

Remember the good ole kindergarten days?  


The naps you refused to take.  
The coloring and playing house with your classmates.
Storytime.
Learning.


Oh and I almost forgot everyone's most favorite part: SNACK TIME.  


Isn't it sad how we have abandoned many of those simple day to day events from kindergarten.  I don't know about you, but I would love to be required to take a nap every day!  


Even though I'm not in kindergarten, I love snack time!  Since everyone is trying to get healthy this year, I decided to post a yummy, easy snack that I enjoy.  Some may know this snack by it's special fun name: Ants on a log.  I enjoy it without the ants though :)




Celery and peanut butter, the perfect combination.  A healthy, delicious snack!  Joe and I went to the grocery store yesterday and bought several healthy items, one of them being celery.  Celery is a low calorie vegetable. (Eat as much as you want, and don't feel guilty, LOVE IT)  I also like to get natural peanut butter to make my snack a little more healthier than using regular peanut butter.  After getting home from the grocery store, I like to dice, chop, or whatever needs to be done to the fruits and vegetables that we buy.  I have found that if they are not already prepared and in the fridge, I forget about them, sitting in that bottom shelf in the fridge.  With them already prepared, I can grab and go.  While chopping, I started to remember how much I love celery and peanut butter.  Yum!  I made some for Joe and myself.  It was a great snack.


What are some of your favorites snacks to pack for the day?  What were your favorite snacks as a child?
