Jennifer Garneris putting her pride aside and opening up her backpack. The actress, 51, gave fans a look inside her bag, despite her nerves.

“I’m a little bit nervous but it feels appropriate to do ‘What’s in my bag?’,” she says in the Instagram post shared over the weekend.

Notebook, glasses case, a pouch full of pens (“Because pens are life,” Garner says) and an iPad are amongst the first few items she pulls out of her backpack. She also holds up two books,The Whalebone TheatreandThe Giver, which she explains that she is reading with her 14-year-old daughterSeraphinaand 11-year-old sonSamuel, respectively.

“Lucky day! It’s my lucky day!” she says gleefully as she finds Tony’s Chocolonely chocolate bars.

And the snacks don’t stop there. TheYes Dayactress finds several RXBARs, an empty bag of Smart Sweets candy and a ziplock bag with a handful of nuts.

“Gotta have your candy handy,” she jokes while pulling out another bag of candy and tea bags.

The star of the upcoming Christmas movieFamily Switchthen proceeds to pull out seven additional individual bags, boxes or containers of nuts, cracking up more and more as she finds another snack.

“I’m so scared I’m not going to have any nuts,” she manages to joke in between her laughter.

Garner captioned the post, hinting at what was to come: “What’s in my bag? I’m embarrassed to even show you….🥜🌰🥜🐿️”
