This post makes me a little sad. It is what I would love to pack my almost 6 year old, however I can count the number of foods he will eat on one hand. He will also not eat “hot” food at room temperature so I tried a thermos, the Skiphop one and he said “some was hot and some was cold, mom.” So I am at a loss for his lunches lately. He requests a bagel with the Kite Hill cream cheese every day! Thankfully my three year old is much more adventurous and I love packing her lunches. So thanks for the ideas.

Maybe a silly question- can you tell me more about this pizza bread?!

ooh congrats on the pregnancy Tara, that’s so exciting! I have definitely considered, and even started putting together a proposal, for a follow-up book. I would really love to write one. For now, I seem to be too busy to stay on top of that — but I do hope to return to it in the not so distant future. ♥

Good luck with everything, and congratulations again!!!

Oh I wish, I’ve never used one so I can’t speak to it. But maybe I’ll know more after this coming winter . . .

Yes! I actually have done that before, I bought a healthy(er) juice from trader joes and made a fruity chia drink/gel, then put it in the reusable squeeze pouch. It works but he much prefers the Mama Chias and man, now they’re at Costco and super cheap and in bulk . . . yeah, I know I could do better there but sometimes you just take the convenient way out. It’s something I can work towards for sure!

Gotcha. I am sure you could make your own Mama Chia drinks by making a thin smoothie and soaking chia seeds in it, but let’s face it, I am sure the cool packaging is part of the appeal for kids.

It’s more that oat milk is easily bought in larger/”bulk” quantities and packed in eco-friendly packaging, but Mama chia and other store-bought snacks don’t have that option.

Haha, you weren’t the only one! I had a lot of people asking about it — it was a great question! I was happy to answer. =)
