Easy lunches, snacks, etc for visiting kids
Posted: Mar 17, 2013
Hopefully some little friends of mine, 9 and 11, will be spending some time with me this summer and I need some ideas about quick and easy lunches and snacks for them. They are not picky at all, like vegetables as well as fruits but it has been years since I had to plan for smaller ones like these and would appreciate any input you would have regarding this. TIA;
snacks-tater tots, tuna crackers, PBJ crackers. - etc...
[ In Reply To ..]as long as they like healthy veggies/fruits you can finger food just about anything with a dip/salad dressing/or melted candies, cheese.
granny smith apples with cheddar cheese slices is good for a snack, or with melted caramels for dipping - the Kraft caramels, not the premade caramel dips those are not good.
If you really have time... - you might try
[ In Reply To ..]making bento boxes for some of their lunches. You can find recipe ideas on line. The ones I've seen are really cute, and show the lucky recipient how much you care, plus you get to be creative. Get them something like a Hello Kitty to hold the goodies (not too pricey), and they'll have a lovely souvenir of your time together when they go back home.
snacks and lunches - at-home mom
[ In Reply To ..]For snacks: Go-Gurts (10 per box $2), mozarella sticks, Cuties (mandarin oranges), fat or sugar free pudding cups (4 for $1).
For lunches: Quesadillas (tortillas and cheese), Nutella on bread and apple slices, Lunchables with Smoothies, corndog with Cuties.

Kids Visiting In Summer, Still Having To WorkApr 12, 2013
and I am one who works straight through without taking time out of the day. I know I can get Netflix for them, they have their Ipads, can get some crafty things to make and some games like puzzles and the lot. I know this sounds like a lot to me but I don’t want them bored to tears. We are planning trips while they are here but then the work days are still hanging around in between. Any other suggestions some of you mothers have for the time you have to be at the keyboard? ...

Ideas For Quick At Home Halloween Snacks?Oct 31, 2009
Having 3 kids sleep over for Halloween, looking for something simple to make that is not too sweet. There's enough candy in the house, want to serve something simple but special that's not too hard to make. Having brain freeze! Looking forward to a fun, safe Halloween with movies, games and letting them pass out the candy after they go around a bit. No sickness yet, thank God, but a young girl in our NE state did die from H1N1 this week. Very sad. Lots of handwashing around here. ...
Visiting Friends Out Of State Soon And They Want To TakeDec 23, 2013
Have never been to this church, know about it and the pastor is well known in America. I have read reports about their standing, singing with band, loud blaring music because the auditorium is huge for almost an hour and cameras all over the place filming people close up I guess for the TV crowd. I am so not into this. I was brought up wearing dresses to church, music was soft and that is how I would want if I went to church. I have mostly pants I wear all the time. I have said do not care to g ...

Instead Of Visiting Disaster Scene, Obama Lectures Louisiana OnAug 20, 2016
Though he could not be bothered to interrupt his Martha’s Vineyard vacation to actually visit those devastated by historic flooding in Louisiana and beyond, President Barack Obama’s Justice Department did manage to send the disaster-plagued state’s leaders a refresher course in anti-discrimination law. The federal agency drafted a 16-page document laying out in excruciating detail the hoops aid workers must jump through in order to avoid running afoul of the law. Any organizations ...

Need Ideas For Packing Lunches For My Daughter.Sep 20, 2015
My daughter just started high school this year and has decided that she does not want to eat school lunches anymore. She claims they make her stomach hurt. She can't give a specific food that causes her stomach problems just all school lunches do. So fine, I don't mind packing her a lunch everyday. I'm not a big fan of the school lunches anyway. My daughter gets free lunches at school because we qualify as I'm a single mom, so I thought we should ...

Really Fast Easy RecipeJun 03, 2011
I have a really easy, quick recipe. It's sort of Sloppy Joes, but my own version. Brown chopped meat in a skillet. Add seasoned salt, onion powder, a hint of garlic powder, and black pepper and stir around. Throw in some chunks of Velveeta cheese and stir until cheese is melted all through. Serve on bun of your choice. You can use regular American cheese, but the Velveeta tends to melt easier and clean up in the pan easier. ...
