Embrace Realism with an Oscar Mayer #SANEWICH

Grateful to Kraft for sponsoring today’s discussion. All views expressed are my own.

Parenthood can be quite challenging. The media often shows scenarios that can lead to what is popularly known as “mom guilt,” and having a neighbor who embodies that sentiment can amplify those feelings.

It’s essential to remind ourselves that we aren’t alone in navigating the often unrealistic expectations placed upon us. In our children’s eyes, we are just the right parent.

This is why I chuckled when Oscar Mayer gifted me a #SANEWICH tarot card, capturing a scenario I encounter at least four times annually.

Sure, you’ve seen those impeccably crafted three-tier birthday cakes that some mothers spend days creating for their kids’ special days.

The truth is, I used to be one of those moms.

Currently, I’m grappling with the need to organize a “perfect” graduation celebration for my eldest son this weekend.

While I can occasionally whip up culinary masterpieces for my children, over the past 23 years as a parent, I’ve learned that they are content with simply anything. Whether it’s basic cupcakes topped with a decoration or an ordinary sheet cake inscribed with “Happy Birthday,” what matters most to them is having me present and savoring the moment.

In a world where we’ve complicated matters unnecessarily, Oscar Mayer Deli Fresh offers a way to keep it straightforward.

Oscar Mayer Deli Fresh provides quality lunch meats whenever you need them. So even during those late-night grocery excursions—because bringing my crew shopping does not simplify life—I can grab a pack of Oscar Mayer Deli Fresh meats to create a delightful “sanewich,” like the Maple Club featured above.
