sun + moon = lookout

I noticed on my drive home from school today that the sun was high in the sky, but so was the moon. I was chatting with Jennifer on the phone and mentioned this oddity. I said that if I were a person from ancient times, this probably would have concerned me. Now, I can tell you that I should have listened to my inner ancient instincts! Next time I see such a sight I will know that sun + moon = lookout, your day is going to be a cluster!

We had a really relaxed day planned with not much to do. We had planned to not do too much work and hit up some of the newly opened shops in Allen. Suffice it to say that hardly anything went as planned.

At least something did go as planned though... I really treated myself today and had a massage. I went to this great spa in Allen called Eaton Court. They were participating in this promotion called Spa Week. Twice a year, spas across the country offer a few services for the discounted rate of only $50. I went for Spa Week in April too. Today I had a different massage therapist than I did in April. The lady today was kind of kooky, but I liked her. She gave me the scoop that if I come in next week on Thursday when they are raising money for breast cancer research and book an appointment with her anytime between Oct. 23rd and December 31st, I can get it for the same discounted price. You know I'm going to be there on Thursday with my appointment book in hand!

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...
