It’s almost like a “deer in the headlights look” for us moms when it comes to back to school. My kids started back a few weeks ago, and even though I love a good routine getting readjusted is not the easiest.
I mean the paperwork alone coming from school is enough to drive you a little crazy!
Right when my kids walk in from school I hear two words.
“I’m hungry.”
If I let them, they’ll raid everything in sight. But when Toaster Strudel™ reached out to me for this post, it was like a light bulb went off in my head. WHY not??? It’s the most perfect after school snack idea I’ve heard in a long time.
Obviously, the beauty of these Toaster Strudels™ is that you can serve them anytime. They’re not just for breakfast. We also happen to be enjoying a little cooler weather right now. Heating up something warm is always comforting to me, and I know my kiddos love them and the smell while they’re heating makes the entire house smell so good.
I honestly don’t think anything could be easier.
We promised our kids that they each could have one after-school activity this semester. So we are running, doing homework, and finding a new balance after-school. On days my boys have practice, feeding them a Toaster Strudel™ with a glass of milk and fruit makes me know they’re getting a “light” meal while heading out to practice.
Toaster Strudels™ are also easy enough to eat while doing homework. Less stress for moms, and more time to hear about their day = my favorite!
You see, we have this snacking thing down to a fine science. 😉
They all sit at the bar, get their papers and homework out, grab some fruit and milk, and bite into a warm pastry filled with strawberries with a warm icing drizzled on top.
What could be better than biting into that while doing homework, I ask?
It’s the perfect motivation to get it all done!
