Skylar made this little “soap box” with her handprints on it in preschool
Complete with a mini bar of soap in it and Germs 101 note affixed
I know one day I’ll look back on these handprints and remember how small 4 year olds really are
Even though, yes, she’s extremely tall for her age. 100th percentile, just like I was as a kid.
But til then, she gave me the ole Talk to the Hand when I was trying to take her picture in the bright sunlight
I took my little handful inside and we ate a few handfuls of homemade trail mix
And I would like to have a few handfuls of any of these:
Vegan GF Peanut Butter Chex Mix, aka “Puppy Chow”
Addictively wonderful Big.Time.
Raw Vegan Caramels or Nut Butter-Filled Caramel Bites (3 ingredients and so easy)
Granola (Vegan, GF)
Vintage photography but I promise this recipe is great even if the photography isn’t. You’ll never need to buy granola again and you can make liberal modifications/substitutions.Chocolate Coconut Oil Protein Popcorn
Scott and I got a little tipsy from rum cake balls in the Caribbean which inspired this recipeNo Bake Vanilla Cake Batter Chocolate Truffles
Questions:
Are there any foods in your house that every time you walk past your kitchen you grab a handful? Or want to grab a handful of every time you pass by?
The healthiest thing I love to grab a handful of is probably edamame
I always keep some edamame cooked and in a tupperware in the fridge and I will frequently graze on it.
Sugar snap peas are another fave. Provided I don’t get my toes rolled over in the process of buying them. Thanks for all your kind words and equally Can’t Believe She Said That (or Did That) stories.
Frozen mango chunks, frozen grapes, or a handful of berries or fruit are other handful foods.
But let’s face it, it’s usually more fun to grab a handful of chocolate chips or something sweet. Right?
No Bake Coconut & Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Bites
Thanks for the Hoodie & Leggings Giveaway Entries. Keep ’em coming!
In the summer I will often grab handfuls of snap peas.
What a cute box, how fun! ANd great recipe inspiration, I need to try more of your vintage vegan recipes.
1. Grapes, figs, bowls of chopped watermelon, carrot sticks and plenty more I can’t think of at the moment. :-)
Oh boy, for some reason all of those desserts look AMAZING right now. I feel like I need to get up and make them all. I love grabbing handfuls of wasabi peas or crystallized ginger! Give me something with a little spice :)
Yum…my handfuls are grapes usually. So refreshing and sweet. Love sweet green ones or red, depending on the season. But those cookie dough balls always call to me, every time they’re posted! Delish!
Yikes, I hope your toe heals up soon! I too can’t believe he said that!
Every time I come to your blog, I am reminded of all the delicious looking little treats that I want to try making. Cake balls and bars and chocolate and truffles – that is my kind of snacking. But if I have that stuff in the house I will eat it all. So I’ll just drool over your photos for now :)
Skylar is so pretty!!! I want everything on this post. I love frozen mango :D
I love it when my kids bring artwork home! One year at Thanksgiving Noah my a turkey with an apple and his hand prints! If there are crackers/crunchy things out on the counter when I get home from work I end up grabbing a handful….not sure why….guess it’s just cuz they’re there!
Awwww, that is so sweet what miss Skylar made. We will miss those little hands someday. Such a cutie she is :)
OH I HAVE to try those rum balls!
