By The Welcome Baby Care Doulas

This always brings a smile to a client’s face.  It reminds them of simpler times—when a lovely lady cut the crusts off their sandwich and tucked them in at night with 2 extra stories, a back rub, and a cuddle.  Lunchboxes, the playground, the pure whimsy of being a kid.  Jumping in puddles and chasing the ice cream truck down the street.

Remember Bugs on a Log?  Celery, peanut butter, little marching raisins.  Sub cream cheese for peanut butter, if you’re feeling crazy.

Our doula versions for grown-ups might include:

• brie and craisins
• almond butter and banana chips
• veggie cream cheese and green olives
• hummus and feta crumbles

…all in a celery boat.  Green veggie, protein, fun.  Cool, crisp, yummy, easy.  Perfect for tired postpartum mamas who just don’t know what to eat.
