Whoops!

by Heather on March 12, 2010

I decided to make some stovetop oats this morning – for both Matt and I.  Apparently I couldn’t read the directions and instead of using 2 1/2 cups of water, I used only 1 1/4.  Needless to say, our oats were a little chewy. 

I used a new topping today – Wild cranberries and blueberries blended with red grapes and morello cherriesIMG_6039 This is a great oatmeal topping – it added a great flavor to the plain oats.  I’ve seen this spread on so many other blogs, I picked it up at Whole Foods last weekend to try. So glad I did!

I enjoyed my chewy bowl of oats with a Green Monster

IMG_6038 I am really trying to incorporate both fruits and vegetables into every meal – a Green Monster is a great way to get some spinach in!

Carbon Fast 2010 Suggestion of the Day:  Minimize disposables today.  Bring a mug to get coffee.  Use cloth napkins at a meal.  Wipe up with a rag instead of paper towels.  Stick a fork in your briefcase or purse for the next time you eat out during the weekday. 

Today is cavity-filling day – when I was at the dentist a few weeks ago, they found a small one.
