Thanks so much to Jenny for doing this blog post for me! She's wonderful and has a great blog so be sure to check her out! I don't know what I'd do without my wonderful blogging friends. Xoxo! :)
Hey everyone I'm Jenny and I blog over at Fit Girl Foodie. Just wanted to start off saying a great big thanks to Katie for letting me do a guest post on her blog while she's away
. If anyone has some serious baking skills it's her.
I'm not going to lie, when Katie asked me to do a guest post I had no idea what I was going to write. I'm not a baker nor have I made anything blog worthy. But if there's one thing I'm good at is making some serious morning oats.
I was a cereal junkie all my life and no not eating Kashi and Puffins. I ate Lucky Charms, Cookie Crisp, Captain Crunch and the likes. My first oatmeal experience was good but not mind boggling.
My rookie days
Fast forward a few months and we have this![http://fitgirlfoodie.files.wordpress.com/2011/05/photo-3.jpg](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_vcD76QzcH3bbg43sTXFAyXqkBmmW7oAppUThzYbNkAiiGXOc_TAML759mMAF_YfiDMKgB1KuYUndFLpVznM75yLng3cVcdYaw5Y8v7pNRUZxz3aTz7tJXjoBI7SEvO0A=s0-d)

YES YES!! you are the QUEEN of oats!
ReplyDeleteAll of these oatmeals look delicious! I'd love to have either of them for my breakfast. :)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE adding pumpkin to my oatmeal! One of my favorite things is this mix of apple sauce, spices, apple chunks, pecans and the like... Apple pie oats! http://thesugarapothecary.blogspot.com/2011/01/steel-cut-oats-and-lilliputian-spice.html
ReplyDeleteOne of the healthiest foods there is. Thank you for showing oats don't have to be the bland gruel we all grew up with.
