Hi, Matt blogging here because Kath didn’t have time this morning! She’s doing some sort of yoga-jamboree today so she had to be out of the house early. She also wanted to bike there in the amazing Springish weather we’re having, and I accompanied her. I don’t really know much about the yogafest, but I assume it’s something like this:
Actually, it’s probably closer to this:
The day began with a delicious cup of french press, and a blend of oatmeal and Great Harvest Nine Grain Hot Cereal mix.
Personally, I’m a fan of stirring in all your toppings, but I can see the benefit of leaving them on top when it comes to blogging. Let’s see, I can detect some peanuts, butterscotch chips, walnuts, and some sorta crumbled up granola bar. Serve with a gooey spoonful of one of the 10 nut butters we have in our cabinet.
I like adding the nine grain to the oatmeal because it’s just enough to give it an extra nutty taste and a little bit of texture, but you still get the volume of oats. Nine grain by itself seems a little sparse for breakfast, ‘specially when you have hours of yoga ahead.
I don’t know why this next picture is on the camera because I don’t remember her eating these, but here ya go:
Well, I’m off to brew beer while the wife is out of the house. Today’s got lots of potential for greatness!

Lovin’ that dancer pose Matt.
Loved the post Matt, very entertaining!
Matt, you are so wise. Stirring the toppings in is the way to go with your morning oats. I might be stopping by this afternoon to bring a gift to brewandbake.com
Ha, your post is great Matt. Loved the 10 nut butters in the cabinet comment!
Haha, awesome post, Matt! Have you considered doing yoga yourself?

Matt, you are the best! I love your posts. I’m looking forward to your input while Kath is abroad. As much as we’ll miss her, she’s leaving her blog in very capable hands. Thanks for the laugh.
Haha Matt you’re hilarious! Kath, you’re lucky to have him!!
That picture is awesome, Matt
Oh and Kath, yours looks great, too – the real deal (no offense of course, Matt, haha)!
Great breakfast – hope you’re having fun at the “yoga jamboree” Kath!!!

Hi son-in-law. Make some cool beer. If you guys can spare us a weekend, we’ll come down and taste it.
Oh but maybe it won’t be ready yet? Then we can have some from an older batch. You are turning me into a beer drinker! We had some last night at a cool bar in Greensboro and Cliff wrote down the name for you on a napkin. Then the bartender took the napkin. Happily, he was able to retrieve it from the trash.
Great posing Matt! Kath I hope you have fun!
Hey Matt! Nice to hear from you
Have a good day brewing!
Ha ha love the photo
Kath, you look gorgeous in that picture! Hi Matt!
Haha, awesome!!!
Love the “yoga” pics…that is actually rather graceful, Matt!
I also love the DL brewing while Kath is out! Have fun!

happy brewing!
p.s. love your hair, kath, it is soooo cute!
Haha I love the guest post!

HYSTERICAL pic of Matt’s yoga pose
And sweet of him to post your bfast!

I agree with Faith. I think the bears need to be enrolled in a special yoga class. They could start a trend for teddy bears across the world.
HAHA! Wow, that post just made my day! HILARIOUS MATT!
Kath, Hope you enjoyed your “yoga-jamboree” as Matt calls it! I can’t wait to hear how it went!
Your breakfasts always look so delicious, I wish that I had the time in the morning to make such delicious breakfasts… during the college semester, I have to be out the door by 7:15am because I have to drive half an hour to campus. What would you recommend I do to have something for breakfast other than granola bars and flavored water??
I really enjoyed coming home to read this
Thanks for all of the great comments!
Lindsay ,
This past summer I had to be out the door by 7 so I made my oatmeal in advance in a big pot and just re-heated it in the microwave. It was all the perks of stove-top cooking with the expediency of microwave. I also made smoothies with cooked oats. Yum! Go back to the June 2008 archives for more info.

Ha! Matt needs a guest post more often, this brightened my day!
hahaha ” i don’t know why this picture in on the camera but i guess i remember her eating those”—toooo funny!
I needed a good belly laugh today. ,
