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!

christie @ honoring health says
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!
Mama Pea says
Skippy & Yoplait? You poor, poor thing 🙂

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!! 😀
Susan says
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!
Karla says

Emily Eats and Exercises says
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.
Carol says
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.
Sarah (Running to Slow Things Down) says
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!

Maria (realfitmama) says
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…
Carolyn says
My oats are almost always made in the microwave. I am NOT a morning person and I rarely have time for the real thing.
Jenny says
haha yikes, the departure in Home Alone is definitely crazy. Overnight oats are what I would have done too! Hope travels were smooth today!
Paige (Running Around Normal) says
Hope you have safe traveling today!
Joelle (The Pancake Girl) says
Banana cream pie yogurt?! That sounds like a dream!
