Iphone Photo Dump...

I decided to post some photos I've taken on my iphone over the past few weeks. I will include a title and a short explanation with each...

What Did Santa Bring for me?

Here the dogs are excited on Christmas morning while unwrapping their stocking stuffers. I actually think this is my Mom unwrapping Millie's stuff, but Lola was equally excited. The only photos we have of Christmas 2011 are iphone photos because I left me dang camera here in McKinney!

Cozy on the Couch

I've told you that I was couch bound for several days post-Christmas-eve less than graceful fall, and that Lola loved every minute of it, but here is photographic proof. By the way, I forgot to include "Midnight in Paris" in my list of movies that I watched. I really liked it.

Pathetic Pre-lit

This is what is left of the pre-lit portion of my bedroom tree. Several portions bit it this season. Pathetic.

I love tea, but I love tea in a cute mug more!

Look at this cute mug I got at Anthropologie right before Christmas. It was on sale and they were doing an additional 50% off all sale stuff, so I got it for less than $4!

Just work with me!

In my sale shopping, I came across this headband. Jennifer had me buy it for Harper and I was using Lola to model it so that I could text Jennifer a photo. She was clearly put out by the whole process.

Precious

This is Lola on my bed. She was all snuggly with Ellie (1 of her 3 identical pink elephants).

It wasn't posed either. She brought Ellie up there and snuggled up to her.

CNN! I'm waiting for your call!

I wrote down my Iowa Caucus predictions yesterday afternoon and texted them to a friend.

All I've got to say for myself is that I'm waiting for CNN to call, and I'll gladly become one of their new political pundits.

I have an idea...

Those words strike fear in my friends. They know that a project is usually coming.

I hit up the 75% off sale at Wally-world today for a Christmas project I've got planned for next year.

Dang it! I hope I got enough ornaments for said project. I'm contemplating another w-mart run...

Lola is so cute - I love that picture of her snuggling! And, I cannot imagine what you are going to do with all those ornaments. Wreaths, maybe? Or, maybe a whole tree made out of ornaments!? :)

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
