Pack Rats

Posted Aug 10 2010 9:08am

I told you you’d see this pasta again :)

Since we still had some of the whole wheat pasta/tomato/basil mixture in the fridge, I packed some for me for lunch along with some veggies and Sabra hummus.

Not the most exciting lunch, but it works!

We have so much to get done before we leave!

This is just some of the stuff we have to pack for Honduras:

Needless to say, we’ve got a lot of packing to do.

I have all the clothes I’m thinking of taking and will have to edit that pile down once we start getting things in our bags.

We also have all our food for the week and travel essentials like shampoo, sunscreen, hand wipes, bug spray, pepto bismol, aleve, etc.

I think we’re stocked on lunch food + snacks!

Odwalla Bars

Amazing Grass bars

Amazing Grass single serving packets! So excited to have these to take – it’ll be my only way most days to get any greens in my system.

Fruit bars, PB&Co pb packets!, Squeeze jelly (grape and strawberry)

Fruit cups, applesauce, trail mix, crispy bars, raisins, craisins, almonds/walnuts, tortillas (for pb&j wraps for lunches)

Instant oatmeal, including these new ones I found – Oat Revolution . Have you seen them? They were on sale this week and I‘ve never tried them but the ingredients look great! Plus tuna packets for lunches, more fruit cups and applesauce.

And the travel essentials for us:

wipes, more wipes, shampoo, face wash, sunscreen, bug spray, gum, floss, aleve, hand sanitizer, pepto bismol tablets, and more wipes.

I know it might seem strange to be packing so much food, but we’re on our own during the day when we’re out at the orphanage or in a town or at the clinic. Our breakfasts are taken care of at the hotel and we typically eat dinner out together after showering from the long day of work. Lunches are whatever we bring with us because we’re not always near a place to get food, so we just have to bring filling foods that are easy to pack. We have it down a science now of what is easiest to pack that we actually want to eat for a whole week :)

 

Whew. That makes me tired just looking at it. We’ll be starting on this pile of stuff tonight!
