Spring Break

This past week has been spring break.  Not really a full on spring break for me, but the college was on holiday, so I didn't have classes all week.  It was nice not having to go anywhere every night last week!  I still had law work to do, but that was pretty slow because most courts close down on spring break too. 

In addition to cleaning out my garage (finally!), I took advantage of the down time and did a little shopping.  I bought a few things to re-accessorize my living room. 

I did this bowl of succulents for the coffee table.  Probably not a true terrarium, but that's what I'm calling it...

I'd really like to get the coffee table accessorized better, but I'm at least finally on my way toward getting it done.

I also got a couple of new pillows at Pottery Barn.  I thought they would add a little color to the couch for spring and summer, plus they were on sale...

Now, I'm spending the day doing all the things I should have done little by little last week:  laundry, cleaning house, work, etc.  Why, oh why, do I procrastinate so?

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...
