Fall 2010 Bucket List

So this isn't really a Bucket List in the normal sense, but it is my Fall 2010 Bucket List.  There is so much going on and so much I want to do.  It occurred to me that some of you live in this area and you may not know about some of these events, so I thought I'd list them.

The State Fair of Texas- now through October 17th (I'm going on Sunday)

Autumn at the Arboretum at The Dallas Arboretum- now through November 14th

Make another Canton trip before Christmas- 10/28 thru 10/31, or 12/2 thru 12/5 (I'm going 10/28)

'Neath The Wreath:  Junior League of Plano Gift Market- November 11th-14th

Chi Omega Christmas Market (at Dallas Convention Center)- November 3rd-6th

Go to a Tech football game (even though we suck)- I'm going to College Station for the game on 10/30!

Do you have any events that are must attend events for you in the Fall?

My sister is a Chi-O, and I'll be going to the Christmas Market too! I haven't made it to the Arboretum this year. I really want to see the pumpkins!

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)...
