Grandparents Day and Questions...

Today is grandparent's day.  I had hoped to do a cute post with photos of me and my grandparents and Lola and her grands but I can't locate any of the photos I know I have somewhere, so I'm done trying.  Happy Grandparents Day!

Samantha over at the Ruby Turtle Hippie Times blog got and then gave a blog award/questionnaire thingy and tagged me last weekend, so I'm answering the questions and will be passing along a questionnaire of my own.  Here it goes...

1. What is your favorite football team?  Texas Tech Red Raiders



2. When you grow up, you want to be...? A lawyer.  I mean seriously, what second grader wants to be a lawyer?  Sadly, I did.  I recently found a booklet I did for our open house way back then.  It was what's your favorite food, what do you want to be when you grow up, etc.  I had lawyer on there.  I knew it was weird, so I added stuff like movie star, etc., but I really wanted to be a lawyer.  Now I want to be a lottery winner when I grow up. 

3. What is your favorite tv series?  This is SO hard because  I'm a t.v. junkie!  Right now I love Modern Family, Gossip Girl (don't judge), Castle, NCIS...  I don't know if there is a show right now that I love as much as some of my past favs like Gilmore Girls, The West Wing, Sex and the City, Alias and The Sopranos.  There are several new ones I'm greatly anticipating.  Thank God for DVR's.

4. Do you like cats or dogs? Dogs!!!


5. What is your favorite time of the year?  Really any of the year when temperatures are below 80!  So that's like late Fall, Winter and early Spring around here.  If I lived somewhere with "normal" seasons, it would probably be Fall.


6. Coke or Pepsi?  Coke.  Actually I drink Coke Zero in the morning and then Diet Dr. Pepper in the afternoon.  Never Pepsi!

7. Mayo or Mustard? Mayo

8. Jackie Kennedy or Audrey Hepburn?  Jackie

Okay, so because I think you are all fabulous...

5. What point in history (other than now) would you choose to live in?

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...
