Larisa, I empathize with the raisins and sunflower seeds. I think I was finding those for MONTHS in our car after a trip.

I'd bet the covering with cloth idea would work or maybe you could trade it with others on CL for something? I have a friend who makes 9 gallons of kombucha a week and trades part for swedish back massages from a lady who'd professionally licensed in massage, something she'd normally never treat herself to and the other lady gets homemade, organic kombucha free in exchange.

I also packed sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds and almonds. I would take the latter two again, but no sunflower seeds because I kept finding them between the car seats and under the floor. Too small. Also little tins of fish, dried fruit, Maranatha's almond and peanut butter, rice crackers and one sweet (fruit juice) drink per person per day plus lots of water. Dried figs, strawberries and apples were great, but I wouldn't take raisins or dates again (because of the mess). Have a lovely trip!

Thankfully my hubby LOVES to drive. I will give one caveat regarding driving overnight- we did it that way last month when we drove about 8 hours to my FIL's burial. The kids were great- slept all night, woke up at breakie time, were chipper and full of energy all day long. Unfortunately, 4 kids full of energy and 2 parents who didn't sleep all night do NOT make a good combination. The next time we have to drive that far, Husband has said we'll be leaving very early in the morning (the kids will sleep the first several hours) and drive all day. A slightly longer trip (more potty breaks when everyone is awake) but no walking-dead parents the next day. Your mileage, of course, may vary :) I hope you have a wonderful, safe trip and eat lots of good food on the way!! .-= Lindsey in AL´s last blog post... <a href="http://www.homesteadblogger.com/lindseyinal/141769/" rel="nofollow">Stuff</a> =-.
