Happy, happy Wednesday! ONE MORE DAY!! One more day until two weeks off for Christmas vacation! I am really looking forward to it! I think I have a mile long to do list, of which 90 percent may not get done! But goals are good! Last night we had our Christmas concert for the children. It was so fun! So crazy too! We were running a little behind on time and although I had prepared dinner with sub wraps and some tator tots ( who doesn’t love a tator tot!) . I was looking for fast min. mess meal… kids still didn’t eat like they should have. On the way out the door at the last minute I threw two sandwich bags full of tator tots in my purse! THEY WERE A LIFESAVER!! Midway through the second song…. the little girls started getting antsy. Toys did not work, my phone did not work… TATOR TOTS DID!! You should have seen the looks from the people behind me! It was great! They were happy, I was happy and able to enjoy the program! Thank you tots! Okay, so on to the super peaches! I wanted to share how I get some snacks for the week ready! I have shared my crackers idea, here is my fruit idea! I am sure some of you already do this, for those of you….. I hope you enjoyed the tator tot story! I hope you come back again! For those of you who don’t do this. It works great in our house and I will even grab some out of the fridge for myself…..
Get the biggest can you can find! Mine is from SAMS club.
Use your strainer spoon, this one is just a pasta strainer.
Get your little containers ready and fill them up!
WHOO HOOO!! LOOK how many I got out of that one can! I also did eat a few peaches, I will admit!
YES!! Lots of peaches and saved lots of money! Throw those in the fridge and they are perfect to grab for lunches or a snack!
Go to the nearest big box store you have.. SAMS, Costco, GFS, those are the ones by us. Some grocery stores carry some big cans also, so check them out. Get a bunch of the little containers, the smallest ones they make. I got mine at Wal-Mart, I think they were 6 for $2.00. Just use a strainer spoon , and put the peaches in the containers! SIMPLE! You get quite a few from the big can. I got 16 out of the can for me. At the store you will pay $2.50 for four , I got the peaches for $4.70 and got 16 out of them so yay! Lots of money saved! I also do this with pears, fruit cocktail and applesauce! I will share some other ideas using these fun little containers another day! ENJOY your Wednesday!
HUGE HUGS.

P.S. Some random info for you, I love green beans! Like love them… I could eat a pound of green beans for lunch every day! Fresh are my favorite but canned will do! What is something you love that you could eat every day?
