Last week a mom casually called me Martha Stewart because I had packed lunch and snacks, and I had enough that her kid could feast too. I summed up my behaviour as frugal; but since then, there's so many things I wish I had said, and one question I wished I'd asked: 'what's so bad about being like Martha Stewart'?
So today I googled Martha Stewart, and the wikipedia definition includes 'homemaking advocate'. That term in itself warms by heart, so if that's what people think I'm like, cool - even if they don't think it's cool.
Funny thing is, most mamas I know pack lunches and snacks, and at least some of what they have is homebaked/homecooked. Plus, I know many of them have secret snacks, the kind they know can lure their park lovin' cobras home.
So fellow homemaking advocates, I ask you this: what is the must-have-food-item/surprise snack you will not leave home without, even if you are only walking to the library?
Mine: Sunny Bears (corn syrup and all...)

nice ideas Mystele, thanks!
choc chips and peanuts and pretzels in a baggy
Amy - thanks for the pretzels reminder!
I love Martha Stewart. Of course sometimes she's just too perfect, but, you know.
I guess or must have food item would be drinkable yogurt or mixed dried fruit.
Those little seaweed snack strips, dried fruit or nuts will always do it.
blissbelly, is there a particular brand, flavour of the strips that your kids 'prefer'?
