Eating and Reading: It’s Been A Long Day…

Reading This Charming Man by Marian Keyes (I’ve had a hard day! I need fluff!) and eating my “famous” Junk Oatmeal.

 

Recipe for “Junk Oatmeal”

  • 1/3 cup Quaker Oats
  • 3/4 cup water
  • Dash of salt
  • Handful of raisins, walnuts/pecans, sunflower seeds, and/or trail mix
  • Dash of Pumpkin Spice seasoning (cinnamon, nutmeg, and all spice)
  • Banana, cut into slices
  • 1 teaspoon peanut butter (tablespoon if it’s been an extra rough day)
  • Honey
  • Vanilla almond milk

 

  1. Combine oatmeal, water, salt, raisins/etc, spices, and banana in a bowl.
  2. Microwave for 3 minutes (I don’t have time for stovetop).
  3. Stir in peanut butter while still hot. Drizzle with honey and a splash of vanilla almond milk.
  4. Grab cheesy chick lit and enjoy.
  5. Serve with a side of chocolate.

  1. Oh my goodness, that oatmeal junk looks amazing! I will definitely be giving that a try. It looks comforting, and healthy too (apart from that side of chocolate of course!)

  2. The junk oatmeal sounds like just the thing. As does fluff. I’m seriously considering downloading Outlander for some mindless s#x reading.
