In-N-Out of their minds!

One of the first two In-N-Out Burgers in Texas opened within 5 miles of my house this week.
Let me just say that there is no greater proof that people are out of their freaking minds!

The day it opened, the lines were hundreds deep.  People were lined up in the wee hours of the morning waiting on them to open.  Then in the afternoon, huge thunderstorms rolled through with heavy rains, lightening and thunder, yet the lines remained.

Today, I was over in the area and they had police out directing traffic.  Cars were lined up and wrapped around the parking lot and down the road.  Traffic was totally snarled!

So unless they are hiding money in some of the burgers, I don't get it.  I look forward to going at some point, but holy moly!  This is nutso!

P.S. Welcome back Blogger.  Thanks for being totally craptastic this week!  Oh, and please restore my "lost" post.

so true. i DON'T get it. i mean, i might understand the lines if this was the one and only day to get an in-n-out burger, but as far as i know, it will be open indefinitely--so why does everyone have to have the burger on the first day they're open! insanity!

Oh gee you really make the opening of our In and Out sound fabulosos! We have one opening in July just 2 miles away. However, I do have to say the burgers are good, as well as the fries!

I too....am PISSED with BLOGGER THIS WEEK! GRR

Whew. You made the smart choice by waiting! I can't believe that people would wait that long - but, I've only had their food once and it was years ago. I can't remember if it was that good or not; even if it was the BEST BURGER EVER I'm still not sure I'd wait! haha.

Yes, Blogger has been driving me up the wall. Glad it's FINALLY working again.

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...
