oh the weather outside is frightful

and comfort food is delightful...

and my morning didn't quite start out so great... but I thought I'd turn it around and have something warm that sticks to my bones - yup - oatmeal. I LOVE oatmeal - esp. on cold grey days... and I know my neighbourhood Starbucks is serving some and even though it's pricey - it's darn good! And you can get dried fruit, nuts and brown sugar to put on it. http://www.starbucks.com/retail/nutrition_freshfood.asp
I think I'm going to make an effort to make my own in my crockpot this week - and see if I can get the kids to eat it - would be so good for them to have something that sticks to their bones!
