Lesson 9: Cake Pans & Car Trips

What do cake pans & car trips have in common?  No, it's not a joke, and normally, the two have nothing to do with one another.  HOWEVER, this is my one proud, brilliant idea for the trip.  I brought basic, 9" round cake pans for Eli to use as a plate during the car ride.  He could put everything from Happy Meal nuggets & fries to gummy snacks in the pan, sit it in his lap, and eat without dropping or spilling anything!  It fit perfectly and was easier for little hands than fishing around inside of tiny packages.  Yay me!!
