State Fair of Texas...check

I went to the State Fair today, with my friend Lisa and her son Tommy.

We were greeted by Big Tex...
Howdy Folks...
We ate lots of food...
Fletchers Corny Dogs are my fav....
The Roasted Corn is really good too...
Then we hit up the car show

Tommy took a photo of EVERY cool car or motorcycle in the place
He liked the Corvettes
Poor child believes himself to be a longhorn fan...
We went to the Midway...

Played some games...
Rode some rides...

We saw some Animals (my favorite part of the fair)...

Here is Tommy's reaction to seeing Boris, the 1200 pound hog...
Then it was time for the petting zoo
There were lots of babies at the petting zoo...

These baby pigs feeding were the cutest thing I've seen in a long time.
See the little guy who is done?
Here is where he was headed off to...

Sleepy warm pigs!
This is a fresh baby zebra...
Born 4 hours before this photo was taken!

That does look like a blast, but I think the best part would have to be the corn dog. Yum!

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
