I know we say this every year, but didn’t it feel like an exceptionally long winter? They (whomever they are) say that’s what makes spring all the more sweeter, after surviving a harsh winter we love every little thing about spring and embrace it with everything we have (yes, even the dry grass and dirt carried in onto my floors!)
Shoppers Drug Mart has everything you need so that you and your family can celebrate spring – Burst into Spring actually – with less time spent shopping in store and more time outside enjoying that beautiful spring weather.
When we’re on the deck or in the backyard enjoying our new trampoline, snacks are a must! I like picking up snacks the whole family can enjoy – a little bit of sweet, a little bit of salty, and a lot of flavour to keep everyone fueled and laughing until the sun sets and that spring chill is in the air sending us back indoors.
Here are our family’s picks from the shelves at Shoppers Drug Mart for backyard spring time snacking:
PC Kettle Corn Sweet & Salty: If you’re like me and love the combination of sweet and salty (chocolate with your popcorn at the movie? Me too!) then you must try this combination! We picked it up this week and eat it out of the bag or in bowls for portion control (which, let’s face it, isn’t a term allowed on the backyard deck anyway!)
Carnaby Sweet Jujubes are perfect for anytime, and a delicious way to satisfy a sweet craving while waiting for dinner on the grill!
PC Whole Cashews take me back to my childhood. My dad loved having a can of nuts when we were camping, or even just watching his favourite shows on TV. It’s one of those things that remind me of my dad when I think back to him, so maybe that’s why I had to pick these up for our family. Bonus, the sea salt makes them extra tasty!
Break apart this Cadbury Dairy Milk Chocolate Bar into squares to hand out to the highest jump on the trampoline, best flip, and longest continuous jumping winners!
PC Banana Crème Dulce De Leche Dessert Cookies are perfect on their own or with milk. We like them as an after-dinner treat when outside for final jump on the trampoline before bath time.
These delicious backyard snacks are available at Shoppers Drug Mart right now, and are part of the Shoppers Drug Mart Burst Into Spring event!
