Cooked To Order

Mom and Dad had to get on the road early this morning to make it back to RDU for a Duke game! So I made them one final breakfast, cooked to order.

Mom requested pumpkin oatmeal with crumbled tea cake.

Dad requested a French press coffee demo.

I had both!

The oatmeal was prepared with 1/3 cup oat portions, pieces of a tiny banana, chia seeds, pumpkin, crumbled tea cake and a tiny bit of Barney Butter for me. Gotta cut back somehwere!

The house is empty now and I’m busying myself washing sheets and towels and picking up crumbs from the weekend. Matt and I are headed to the gym in about an hour and then we’re headed up to Davidson to have lunch with my college roommates, Meredith and Alaa’, who both just happen to be in the area this weekend!

Tonight’s going to be as low-key as possible. Turkey sandwiches and a movie?

    I was just getting ready to say the same exact thing as Christie – turkey sandwiches and a movie sound like the perfect ending to a Saturday! But before that – hope you enjoy your gym time and the company of your friend!! Hopefully the weather is nice 🙂

    Leftover turkey is the best…there are so many different meals that can be created.
    Grilled turkey and cranberry sandwiches being one of my favs.

    I love making oats for other people…especially when they come out perfectly and you find yourself convincing other people that oats are far from boring. 😀

    Have fun today! Turkey sandwiches and a movie sounds like a wonderful idea. 😀

    Yumm. Your oats always look so good and than when I make them they don’t taste nearly as good as yours look. I have a question. Those great harvest muffins you’ve been putting pieces of into your oats look delicious. Where do you buy great harvest products?

    I have to try a cake or muffin on oats, looks like it belongs there, as if sitting on top of its batter. 🙂

    I feel like being so lazy after the holiday! I am forcing myself to go running the treadmill..bad habits can form fast so I am trying to get active asap! 🙂 But a lazy, relaxing night is definitely in order. Simple dinner and a movie sounds perfect, maybe I will do the same. 🙂

    Hi Kath, this comment is not so much in response to this post as it is about OATMEAL. Pancakes that is. I tried your recipe for oatmeal pancake and have been LOVIN’ it!! I showed it to my sister when I visited her in Colorado for t-giving. Now she’s a fan, too.

    Just wanted to say Thanks for a great little recipe. It has changed my life. Okay, not really, but it is my new favorite breakfast. I haven’t tried any of your oatmeal combo’s yet, but look forward to those too.

    I loooove having guests over and making big batches of oats for them in the morning. Or just breakfasts in general. Not dinner though 😛 Enjoy your Saturday!

    that pumpkin-chocolate chip loaf sounded so good…
    any chance of posting the recipe,
    or at least one of similar calibre?
    mmmmmmmmm,
    looks so good with oatmeal;
    i used to eat them with fruit and yogurt in the morning.
    suddenly i’m inspired to try that again… 😉

    Good Afternoon, Kath!
    I bought some delicious bread, brie, apples, and pecans…. I saw a delicious sandwich on your blog a few weeks ago and I want to try it, but now I can’t find it!
    May you please post quick instructions to make it?
    Thanks!

    I’m with your mom. I love the flavored oatmeal from a packet, but in honor of Kath, I try to add at least a banana or some other fruit. Maybe your mom would do the same!
