When I was looking for fun ideas for different lunches and healthy snacks - in the past, and more recently - I came across something called, "ants on a log" (it's mentioned in a post about lunches for children, which I did back in August). Well, I decided I'd give it a go... Just because I could, and because it sounded quite tasty.
To save you looking up the post - since I can't be bothered to grab the link myself to link back to it - I'll tell you what it is: it's a stick of celery, filled with peanut butter, and topped with raisins. It was quite tasty. It wont make it in to my top ten favourite snacks or anything like that, since I'm not really much of a celery eater, but I wouldn't mind having it again.

Owen has another storytelling event tonight. I'm not going though. I would have, only it's the same one as I went to back in February, so I decided against it. I'm sure it will be just as good as Owen's storytelling events usually are though! I mean, he hasn't disappointed me yet! :)

Elizabeth has finally done another blog - after a few years of not posting - so you might want to check that out if you want an update on Michael.

Kero's birthday post will be going up tomorrow. So, if you enjoy my furkid posts, then you'll want to look out for that. I've set it to go up at 2:00 pm my time.

I did another post early this morning... If you missed it, scroll down.

I love celery and peanut butter. Never thought to put raisons on it. I do like raisons too!
I like how Winnie the Pooh is eyeing that snack. :)
I like celery. I like peanut butter and raisins, too, but they don't like me.
I clicked on the link and visited Elizabeth's blog. Michael is growing right up there.
Looking forward to Kero birthday pics. :)
Those bugs on a log were really popular when I was a kid and I couldn't stand them because I don't like raw celery or raisins--ROFL! I never liked peanut butter and jelly, either. I prefer a cheese sandwich any day--heck, I'd even rather have plain bread and butter. What a fussy eater, eh? I have learned to eat peanut butter. And I do love jelly on toast. I guess maybe we can learn to appreciate different foods as we "mature"? ;)
Iggy:
I love raisins, really like peanut butter, but only like celery when it's eaten with something. Hence the idea of trying the ants on the log. Apparently it also works well with cream cheese. Haven't tried it that way yet.
Winnie The Pooh was probably wondering if it would taste better with honey on it. ;)
AK:
Fair enough! Maybe not a snack for you to have much then? ;)
Yeah... Michael is 10 months old now... Sure has gone quickly!

I never liked peanut butter or celery when I was a child, but I've always loved raisins. Our tastebuds mature as we get older, and sometimes we like things when we're older that we didn't as a child, and sometimes it's the other way around. As a point though, I'm often fussy with food too. Certain things I only like certain ways... So, it's not just you!
