LOOK at what Rudi got the Bears into last night!! We are very disappointed in him. A teenager is supposed to set the example!
Thankfully the Bears have had enough exposure to their father’s beers to know to stay away until they are of age. I think the fumes must have got to them though. They were quite loopy this AM.
I sipped on coffee while I waited for the rest to rise. My parents slept for 10 hours; Matt and I slept for 9! Guess our stomachs demanded more rest.
Mom wanted “KERF Oatmeal.” I delivered!! I made a pot for 3 (including Matt) of oat bran oat mix with banana – the usual – and topped them with pumpkin muffin crumble, pumpkin butter and drippy TJ’s sunflower butter (extra on mom’s!)
[My bowls are from a boutique in Charlotte; Placemat’s from Southern Season in Chapel Hill]
We’ve got a bit of a dreary day. But Larbs and Matt are on the way down from Maryland to spend it with us!
We’re taking M+D out on a tour of Cville via automobile this morning, then coming back for a leftovers lunch, then hopefully fitting in our annual Thanksgiving Weekend Hike this afternoon. Out to dinner tonight! Fun times.
Georgie says
I’m not sure if I can fit any oatmeal in my belly this morning! Such a great tradition to go on a Thanksgiving weekend hike – great to get some movement in on a weekend focused on food!!
Angela @ Eat Spin Run Repeat says
Sounds like a great day planned! I’m envious of the amount of sleep you had – I went to a Thanksgiving dinner with co-workers last night and didn’t get home till midnight, then was up for a 5am personal training session… bahh lots of coffee to come this morning!! Have a great day Kath! 🙂
Meg says
Tisk tisk, Rudi!! Gosh, what a sleeze! 😉
Enjoy your tour and hike! 😀 Looking forward to the recap! Stay warm!

Gabriela @ Une Vie Saine says
I slept like a rock last night too- all that food takes a lot of energy to digest 😉 Have fun with Larbs and Matt!
Lauren at KeepItSweet says

Megan @ The Oatmeal Diaries says
What boutique are the bowls from? I live in Charlotte and would love to find them! I’m a sucker for anything with coral on it. Your breakfasts sound (and look!) amazing by the way 🙂
Kath says
A shop in the shopping center with Nolan Kitchen and Yoforia. I forget the name!
Angie @ Musings of a Violet Monkey says
Can’t think of the name either, but it’s at the intersection of Selwyn and Colony!
Megan @ The Oatmeal Diaries says
Ok, thank you guys! 🙂
Balanced Healthy Life says
The Husband and I slept in late this morning and slept hard last night! : ) Too much food! I love the couch in that first photo!
Erin (Travel, Eat, Repeat) says
I didn’t wake up until 8 this morning — late for me! — and am still lazing around. We have a THIRD Thanksgiving meal today, though, so I need to get going (and find a loose-fitting dress haha).
Christine says
How could you request anything BUT KERF oatmeal?!
The matching breakfasts are too cute!
Grocery Goddess Jen says
The weather here is icky, too. I don’t see me doing much outdoors today. Have fun with Larbs and Matt!
Joanna says
Love the pic of the coffee with the leaf. Great one!
I also had oatmeal this morning. It is a good start to the day after Thanksgiving.
Gillian Young says
The new placemats look gorgeous! I’m envying your mom’s oats right now…yum! Do you deliver to Canada?
Natalia - a side of simple says
KERF oatmeal sounds like a great recovery remedy for any hangover, turkey or beer. Hope the bears got some, too 😉
Loving the new placemats!
missy says
Oh, my! Rudi is not setting a good example. 😉
Have a great day with your family.
Christine (The Raw Project) says
The oatmeal looks great and sounds like a wonderful day planned. Enjoy!

So cute!
I also love that you have bears! 😀
Melissa @ I Never Imagined says
HAHAHA!! I love the naughty reindeer photo!! Poor little bears!!! I hope somebody had a stern talk with Rudi after that!
alicia says
HAHA the one under the couch cushion!!!!! so funny.
Mary @ Bites and Bliss says
Bears will be bears. 😉
faith @ gracefulfitness says
I was looking at this post with my 8 year old niece and when we scrolled to the first oats picture she proclaimed “ohhhhh!” “WHAT is it? Is it caramel?”. Her comment “I like your bowls of yumminess!”.
Talia says
Today is my birthday! I just realized yours is on the 26th of October and mine on the 26th of November! A month apart haha. (I must be slow if it took me slow long to realize haha)
Kath says
Happy B-day!!
Alaina says
Haha, I love those bears! And those bowls. I have one that color except the orange is the background with white flowers.
Hope you had a wonderful thanksgiving!!
Chelsea @ One Healthy Munchkin says
There’s nothing better than an extra long sleep after a filling meal! 😀
Heather (Heather's Dish) says

I would blame the malcontent reindeer for all the wild antics. He looks like nothing but trouble to me 😉
Simply Life says
Looks like a great morning – love the bowls and placemats! 🙂
stacey-healthylife says
I love the bears, that’s funny.
Marci says
My sister lives in Chapel Hill and I think I’ll be getting placemats from that store for Hannukah or my birthday! So bright and pretty.
Amy at TheSceneFromMe says
Jealous of your sleep time last night!
I love the bowls with the coral design on them. You have a unique blend of dishes!
Missy says
So excited for you and Matt to open up your store!!! Can’t wait to visit!!!
Hannah says
Oh my gosh… sometimes when I see these bear posts and your stories, I can’t help getting excited about when you have real kids. Is that strange?! 😛
chelsey @ clean eating chelsey says
The bears crack. me. up.
Meg says
I love that you got your placemats from Southern Seasons. I was just there on Wednesday. I LOVE it! I must have wandered around there for at least 2 hours. It is a good thing I live in Chicago, that place could make me broke very quickly.
