Windy Days

Wind, wind, go away
Please don't come another day!

The wind is KILLING me!  It's killing me physically.  It's killing my ambition. 

My eye has been totally jacked for days now.  On Saturday, my right eye watered all day.  Not just a little watery.  It was constant tears rolling down my face.  Then yesterday, from the second I woke up until I went to bed, the same darn eye twitched all day.  Non-stop.  Thought it was going to drive me CRAZY!  Now today, we are back to the waterworks.  It looks like I've been crying all day!

The wind is killing my ambition to work in the yard too.  I've had a hard time getting geared up anyway (can't decide what to plant~I have difficult lighting issues in my beds), but the constant wind isn't making it any easier. 

Last night we had horrible storms in the area.  I woke up hourly and turned on the tv to make sure we weren't needing to take cover.  I hope everyone in this area made out okay!

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...
