healthy kid-friendly snacks for those long days at home

kids are both the reason we lose it and the reason we keep it together. 

I'm oh so grateful for the L O N G and beautiful days together with my little nugget, Lucille. 

​But in order for me to have some type of sanity and calmness, I still need to accomplish some chores or home-task essentials without Lucille intervening.  I mean the house isn't going to clean itself and dinner isn't prepared by our personal chef. #wishfulthinking

I have compiled a list of my favorite kid-friendly healthy snacks that have been helping make my days a little bit happier and healthier.  Lucille can eat them independently while I am able to wash some dishes, prepare a meal or maybe even go to the bathroom ALONE for a change. 

So here they are, THE SNACKS I FEEL LESS GUILTY ABOUT GIVING MY KID AS A DISTRACTION IN ORDER TO GET SHIT DONE !
