I’ll be going home for the holidays, which means: cleaning out my fridge and preparing all of my gifts. So besides massive amounts of cookie baking, I have been busy trying to get myself together so I can relax at home with my loved ones. Last night I made an easy dinner, incorporating as much [...]
I am thankful for oats in a jar and loose leaf tea.1/2 cup instant oats cooked stove top with 1/2 cup vanilla soy milk, 3/4 cup water, 1/2 banana, cinnamon, ginger, allspice, cloves.
