Packing Denial

As I am currently blogging, you know that I am in packing denial. That and that I have a load of stuff in the dryer that includes every pair of jeans that I might possibly pack.

I met Dad today and exchanged Lola. Here is a pic of Lo in the front seat of her grand's truck. Usually I make her sit in the back seat, but she looked so happy to be up there with him, I just let it be. She thought she was real hot stuff! You can see her face silhouette in the center of the truck...

She is so cute, I just can't stand it!

I have just written out a post-it note that represents every outfit I will need. On the post it I have the day, or time of day, it represents and what the weather will be at that time. Now, I have to go match up an outfit to every post it. I'm hoping this will prevent over-packing! I'm hoping it won't require a pair of shoes for every post-it! We'll see!

Your Friend,

I did that exact same thing for our disney info, I even went so far as buying two gallon zip locs and packing each outfit in it with the sticky label. Outside of the fact that the ziplocs slid all over eachother, it was the best packing decision I ever made! It was way organized for me!!

Good luck!! Will you be blogging on the road?

I will have to say that was the best packing Abby has ever done. I loved it, for when I needed to know what to wear.

Hope that packing got done. Oh and LOVE the pic of Lola! She is so stinking cute.

Swiss Oatmeal {Copy Cat Recipe}

I'm obsessed with Swiss Oatmeal.  I particularly love   Corner Bakery's Swiss Oatmeal.  If you are not familiar with Swiss Oatmeal, it is a cold oatmeal cereal with fruit and nuts. I've had a similar recipe for years, but it was only similar.  It wasn't close enough for my liking.  So I finally set out into the land of Pinterest to find a recipe that was a good Copy Cat.  I found a few, combined them and came up with what I think is a very close Copy Cat Recipe of Corner Bakery's Swiss Oatmeal. Here's what I do (note, this recipe is really just pictures, because I don't really have measurements for these things.  The photos aren't great, but it's easier if I show you what I do)... Here's the Phase 1 ingredients...   Milk Honey Yogurt (I use a vanilla greek yogurt) Oats (old fashioned, not quick...you probably could do steel cut too)    I've simplified this to where you only need a bowl and a spoon for Phase 1 becau...
