[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Reasonably shelf-stable perishables:
- I often make a bunch of pbj sandwiches because my family doesn't mind if they've been in a mini fridge for a few days.
- cheese sticks or babybell cheese
- baby carrots
- clementines, apples, other fruit less likely to get squished

dry goods: oatmeal, granola bars, salted almonds, beef jerky, sugar packets (for oatmeal),  pretzels/chips

- parmalot milk (for the oatmeal) and ginger ale cans for DH, wine for the adults if we're sharing a room with the kids but have a balcony.

We like going out for meals but also really like being able to tide the kids (or ourselves) over if we're on slightly different schedules, before going out for a meal.  It's also really helpful to have when traveling by car/plane.  We rarely go somewhere where we can't buy this stuff, but I'd much rather pack it at home -- especially if we're driving -- than to have to think about where to buy basics upon arrival.[/quote]

Our list is pretty similar. I focus on breakfast because my kids will eat while we're getting ready and we don't have to waste time at a restaurant. Bagels, bananas, milk and cereal have worked best. I buy alot of packaged snacks and have each kid pick 2-3 to take in our backpack for the day. Sometimes I'll get the cup of Mac and cheese so the kids can have dinner if we're not up for going to a restaurant. If we have a balcony or a separate room well bring some wine or liquor for when the kids are asleep at night.[/quote]
