This morning is a bit like the departure in Home Alone when the whole family is running around. We decided to post pone our run until after our arrival on Bald Head to help de-complicate the morning.
In order to cut out more morning chaos I made overnight oats so I wouldn’t have to dirty a pot (or spare me the possibility of making oatmeal in the microwave
)
Last night:
- 1/3 cup instant oatmeal
- 1/3 cup milk
- 1/2 container Banana Cream Pie yogurt (the aspartame kind
) - Pumpkin pie spice
- Pinch salt
This morning:
- 1/2 banana
- 1/4 Probar crumbles
- Skippy Natural
Starbux coffee.
Hit the road Jack take II!

I was just telling my family that Home Alone is the best Christms movie… I love it. Hope you had a great Christmas Kath!
Safe travels!!! Have a great day!
Ohh, and LOVE Home Alone =)
merry christmas kath…beautiful breakfast as always!
Hey, nothing wrong with oats in the microwave, you just have to get the technique right. The key is more liquid and to soak them overnight.
Anyway, travel safe!
Skippy & Yoplait? You poor, poor thing
Home Alone was a fun movie!
Have a great time in Bald Head!
My brother and I watched the first and second Home Alones yesterday…
ahhh sad we were so close + yet so far these past 2 days! next time you come we are venturing to loyo.
I love how you’re always so prepared and think ahead when you’re out of your normal element and traveling. Have a safe trip home!

I just finished watching Home Alone
I love that movie! Hope the trip goes smoothly, and can’t wait to see pictures!
Have a nice trip and a good run once you get there!
I love seeing how you eat when out of your own house becuase it gives me ideas of what to do for food while traveling. Have a merry December 26th!!
Haha, love the Home Alone reference
One of my fave Christmas movies! I find those yoplait yogurts kinda creepy. I had an apple crumble one once, and it tasted just like the real thing. Except… no apples…or yummy crumble bits. Too weird for my tastebuds!
Have a safe trip!!
Your oats looks tasty! I’ve still to try overnight oats!
wow those overnight oats sound great!!
have a safe trip home
Have a great run once you get to Bald Head! Those oats look fantastic
Love the movie Home Alone! Your oats look great too!
Just watched that movie! Great holiday movie! Also that food looks delish!
Purrrrty yogurt bowl
Skippy Natural pnut butter is SO good! Super creamy + thick. Enjoy your trip!
I still have yet to make overnight oats. I just like something to warm me up – I don’t know if I will like cold oats. I’m always so impressed about how controlled you are about your peanut butter. I don’t always have so much control around PB… Have a great trip and a wonderful run.
Wow, that looks amazing. At first I thought that was a bowl of ice cream. YUM! But it looks not only yummy but is also healthy. Two thumbs up. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
Aww…I’ve been looking back over your Christmas-y posts, and everything looks beautiful. So glad you’ve been having a blast with the family.
Safe travels home!

Sounds like you had a great Christmas! Enjoy the rest of your travels!
Gosh, you guys are go go go right now! Drive safely!
OMG!! Home Alone was on repeat ALL DAY yesterday, but I can’t remember which channel. I think we saw parts of at least 3 times! I don’t know if it’s the angle of the picture, but that looks like the smallest bowl of oats I have ever seen. Maybe my oat bowls have been too big?!?! Happy Travels…
My oats are almost always made in the microwave. I am NOT a morning person and I rarely have time for the real thing.
haha yikes, the departure in Home Alone is definitely crazy. Overnight oats are what I would have done too! Hope travels were smooth today!
Hope you have safe traveling today!
Banana cream pie yogurt?! That sounds like a dream!
