Yesterday was simply amaizeing. Yes, I know that I am spelling “amazing” wrong. After work, a few of my coworkers and I did something WILD and CRAZY. We went to a corn maze. It was actually called, “The Amazing Maize Maze.” 1/2 cup old fashioned rolled oats cooked in 1/2 cup vanilla soy milk, 1 [...]

Now that’s what I call oatmeal! I got a little overzealous making breakfast this morning. I was afraid that my bowl wouldn’t hold the contents of the sauce pan I cooked them in. This bowl was huge! It looked like a big pumpkin pool, and I was more than happy to dive right in. 1/2 [...]
From start to finish, today was one of those “blah” days. I woke up late, worked like crazy and returned to my apartment in a fog. I couldn’t help but think, there has to be more to life than this mundane routine. I want to travel the world, experience new cultures and leave my footprint! [...]
