By now, you know I love a good snack mix. And I love Fall, so today, I’ve combined the two into our favorite fall snack mix and treat to take to friends. And it’s already made a tailgate appearance. It is the perfect treat to keep in a bowl for small group, fall after-school snacks, or to drop off to neighbors just for a little happiness.
I seriously love throwing together new mixes from time to time and the week when we moved in, I threw a bunch of fall snacks together in a plastic container, and we all would grab a handful from time to time as we unloaded boxes.
In October and November, Little Man and I have some weekly lessons (check out @bigpittstop on Instagram to see what we’ve been up to), and the first week of November, we talk about harvest and community. I thought it would be fun to make an “Its Fall Y’all” snack mix and take it to our neighbors. I’m not sure yet if people still eat snacks and treats from the new neighbors, but it was a great way for us to talk about friendship and kindness and get out of our house and go for a walk.
When you show up at the door to meet your new neighbors, it sure helps to have a treat in your hand. (spoken from experience)
