Taking the Time to prepare snacks

AJerry was working tonight and the girls were watching movies. So I took the time to prepare snacks for the future.
When you have healthy snacks prepared there is no reason to stop by the store. Usually i take a evening once a week to prepare. Chopping carrot sticks, celery, Brocolli. Poping air popped popcorn and placing in ziplock bags. Boiling eggs, grapes in ziplocks, strawberries, Freezing Banana's for our shakes.
Also taking the time to chop the veggies for meals. Having a food processor has been a lifesaver.I know these days people are on a budget with food. But if you try very hard  to buy the fruit that is on sale and veggies, you can remain healthy. Last night I did take the girls out for a Valentine dinner. We ordered healthy of course. I had to laugh though the waiter asked what we would like to drink and i said water. He asked again for the kids. I thought well no I do not want to feed my children soda.When we went out we all orderd boiled shrimp salad. Instead of dressing we put alittle salsa on our salad and it was very good. ( not that Simplicity needs to watch her weight) But we all really try to be considerate of Patience feelings. We had a lovely evening.Going out to eat is a very rare thing for us. And  when we do Patience knows the items that would be healthy.
