I used to dread my turn for what's become a ritual in many preschools and elementary schools -- sending in snacks for the whole class. For school newbies, think of it as your snack dilemma for playdates times ten. It's hard enough to find something one kid will eat, let alone 20 -- each with his own food eccentricity. Then there are a slew of school rules and sometimes pressure from other moms who think your choices are too healthy or even not healthy enough. Still, by mid-year I found a groove. By the end, I was rockin'. Share in my snack roster.
