Jennifer Garner is giving us a peek inside her backpack and putting aside her reservations.
The 51-year-old actress anxiously posts what’s in her bag on Instagram over the weekend. She displays a notebook, an iPad, a pouch full of pens (which she claims are necessary for survival), and a case for her glasses.
In addition, Garner displays two books, “The Whalebone Theatre” and “The Giver,” stating that she is reading them to her son Samuel, age 11, and daughter Seraphina, age 14.
Jennifer Garner has a series of snacks in her bag
Jennifer Garner joyfully declares, “Today is my lucky day!” after finding Tony’s Chocolonely chocolate bars in her bag.
The Yes Day actress continues her snack exploration when she finds multiple RXBARs, an empty Smart Sweets candy bag, and a ziplock bag with a handful of nuts inside.
The actress, who is best known for her part in Family Switch, revealed in a lighthearted way that she likes to stockpile candy and nuts in order to store them for the winter. Garner cried, “Nuts. Nuts. Nuts. Nuts,” as she opened her bag to discover several plastic bags containing nuts, including pistachio snacks.
There were eight bags in all. She laughed and admitted to being a little overwhelmed, but she was afraid of running out of nuts. In addition, Garner joked, “Gotta have your candy handy,” after finding both empty and full bags of candy concealed in her backpack.
Her humorous and approachable side was highlighted in the humorous video.
In an earlier interview with Harper’s Bazaar, Jennifer Garner gave readers a peek into her daily diet. She revealed that coffee, coffee, and more coffee make up her usual breakfast, although right now, she’s obsessed with full-fat yogurt, berries, and nuts.
She acknowledged that she’s not very good at making things cute, but she still said she loves to bake and cook for her family.
Although Garner keeps her three children from her previous marriage to Ben Affleck private—Violet, 17, Seraphina, 14, and Samuel, 11—she freely shares her culinary exploits on social media. Whether she’s sharing her triumphs or owning up to her mistakes—like the Easter bunny bread and the cinnamon bread men—Garner never fails to be open and approachable with her fans.
