What??
What on Earth would motivate me to post on this long-forgotten blog after nearly 6 years of silence?
Well, it's simple, really.
I have accumulated a number of recipes that I want to keep track of in one place.
I'll be posting them here, but probably won't include pictures often.
This baked chocolate chip cookie oatmeal adapted from Apple of My Eye is one of my favorite go-to recipes for breakfast!
It's so warm and comforting, especially on a chilly morning, and several of my kids love it. This morning Benson said as he was eating, "Mmmm, so good, Mom!"
Maxwell, on the other hand, who regularly eats 4 helpings of it, spotted a tiny bit of cooked egg white in his oatmeal and a fit commenced because it was a "cold white thing" and he would no longer eat it.
Such is life.
2 c. quick oats
1 t. baking powder
1/2 t. cinnamon
1/4 t. salt
