I know that it is technically still summer (I also know that it is President\/Chief Justice Taft’s birthday), but it is feeling a whole lot like fall in the mornings lately.<\/p>\n
While the stores that I frequent kick the school supplies to the curb to replace them with Halloween goodies, this time of year makes me think of oatmeal.<\/p>\n
I love starting the morning with a filling bowl of warmth. It’s even better when there are warming spices involved. Here in Michigan where the cooler seasons reign for the majority of the year, a heat-loving gal like me has to fortify herself with things that make those breezy to biting bits of weather more manageable.<\/p>\n
I remember eating oatmeal as a child. I remember slicing bananas onto a bowl of cinnamon or nutmeg-spiced oatmeal. The best bananas for this in my opinion are the ones that are in that phase after they are no longer green at all, but before they become freckled with brown spots. That, to me, is the classic bowl of oatmeal. These days, however, I like to branch out, have a little adventure with my porridge.<\/p>\n
That’s when I turn to Pinterest. I’ve been collecting oatmeal recipes and I have to say that I’m looking forward to trying them.<\/p>\n
