5 Things

Here are 5 Things from my Tuesday
(1) Today I have been constantly entertained by Stephen Colbert's tweets(@StephenAtHome).  They have all been about Jon Kyl and his ridiculousness...

some of my favorites:  

~Jon Kyl developed his own line of hair care products just so he could test them on  bunnies. #NotIntendedToBeAFactualStatement

~Jon Kyl can, and will, deny that you're a jolly good fellow. #NotIntendedToBeAFactualStatement




~Jon Kyl is an accomplished nude hula dancer. He is not welcome in Hawaii. #NotIntendedToBeAFactualStatement

(2) Back in September 2008 when the Foo Fighters announced that they were calling it quits (for a while at least), and I was very sad.  But now, they have had their break and have a new album.  Yay!  Also love that they've been on Saturday Night Live and The Daily Show this week.

(3) My. Eye. Is. Still. Watering.        Buckets 'o tears!   You know how when your nose runs constantly the skin under your nose gets raw and irritated?  Yeah, well, the skin around my right eye is that way!

(4) I FINALLY made it to the nursery today.  I went without a plan.  My plan became grabbing this and that until my cart was full.  Coleus, Perilla Magilla, Pink Angel Wing Begonias, White Baby Wing Begonias, Sweet Potato Vines, Pink Wave Petunias, Spikes, Bacopa, Plumosa Fern, Asparagus Fern & Maverick Geraniums, oh my!  I think I finally made some sense of what I bought and plan to do the actual planting tomorrow. 

(5) I decided today my job wouldn't be too bad without clients.  You see the irony here right?  I wouldn't really have a job without clients, but they are what makes my life total suck-o sometimes!  Ugh!

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...
