The life of Lola

Well, life is good... if you're Lola that is!



As you can see from this series of photos, her grandma has been here to love and kiss on her! Mom has gone home now, so poor Lola is just going to have to make do with my one-hand -petting now!

I'm doing okay. I'm still on pain killers. The best way to describe the pain is to say that it feels like my hand is burning. I don't know why. My Dad speculates that it's the nerves healing. Sounds logical to me, so I'm going to go with that one, though I will point out that neither of us have a clue. My two biggest complaints are (1) the antibiotics make me feel nauseous & (2) my throat hurts because I think they scratched it either inserting or removing the tube during surgery.

I'm just staying horizontal for now because that's the easiest way to keep it elevated. Thanks for all the get well wishes!

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
