Just a quick entry before Chris and I leave for New York! I can’t tell you how excited I am to visit the east coast. Colorado is beautiful, but there is just something about the great state of New York that makes me feel at home. Besides, I love the fact that I get to see lots of Dickinson friends this weekend!

My strawberry peach oatmeal 2.0

Delicious the second time around… and look how fancily I cut the strawberry! So proud of myself for that!!!

Now, on to the airport! New York, here we come!

It has been incredibly hot here recently. September is just around the corner. I’m looking forward to fall!

Cool weather, crisp air, leaves changing… it all sounds so lovely!

I decided to pretend that it actually is fall and eat oatmeal for breakfast. This is something that I usually reserve for days that start in 50* or cooler weather.  Today however, I had strawberries, peach preserves that I made, and ripe bananas.

The combined result was delicious:

I’m not so sure if the banana worked in the oatmeal. The strawberries and peaches were so sweet, but the banana seemed a little flat in comparison. Next time, I think that I might leave the banana out the next time I try the mix!
