Today’s the day! A total eclipse of the sun, along the “path of totality”. I’m fortunate to be on that line today, but not sure if the weather will give us a very good view. No matter what, it’s exciting for my sons, especially my oldest who dreams of a career in the Space field.

It’s the perfect day for these themed snacks:

Mars Bars, Milkway Bars, Starbursts, Sunkist, Moon Pies (celebrating its centennial this year!), Sun Chips, Sunny Delight and anything star, moon or sun shaped.

One of the easiest snacks to prepare for today are these time tested and adult/child approved rice crispy treats. Check out how to make them at Little Life of Mine.If you’re a little more ambitious, these “galaxy cookies” will really set the mood. Recipe and how to at Sugar Spun Run!Let’s thank our lucky stars that we get to witness this “out of this world” event!
