It is pouring down rain this morning.
The kind of morning that makes you want to pull the covers over your head and sleep a little longer.
Only I can’t.
The car and trailer are packed, and the only thing I’m waiting on is the rest of the family to get up. We are headed on a road trip!
And you know what that means? Road trip food!!!
(Have you noticed a theme? Whether we are talking about football or travel, I am all about the food. )

One of my biggest goals, when we travel, is to make sure we eat as well as we can. I try to pack as many snacks and meals as I can.
That is not to say I don’t love splurges. Just not the kind that leaves me feeling bloated for days.
