Homebound Again

We are in the throes on another winter weather event.  As long as you don't have to be outside in the bitter cold, it's not too bad.  In fact, I'm kind of getting used to this day (or more) off in the middle of the week where I can curl up under a blanket, with a schnauzer snoring in my ear, and watch all the shows that have been building up in my DVR. 

We certainly didn't get the 3-5 inches of snow they were predicting, but we did get a nice layer of ice with a little bit of snow on top.  I'm not sure what changed so that we didn't get all the snow.  Wait.  Yes I do.  I went to the grocery store and stocked up yesterday!  Guarantee you that if I hadn't, we would have been snowed in for a week.  The good news is that this "event" won't last as long as the one last week, as we have 60 degree temps in the forecast for the weekend.

I did have to change my hair appointment from today to next Friday, but I'm thinking that it's a fair trade for another snow day.

Stay warm!

Another day- I'm jealous. We have the bitter cold, but no ice or snow. Glad you made it to the grocery store.

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...
