It is time, dear peoples of the world, to break the monotony of breakfast.
For ever and always, we've been told that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. I know, personally, I love breakfast. Sometimes, and I'm talking rarely here, I'll opt for just a Hot Coffolate, but usually I try and eat some real food.
Breakfast is a wonderful time to eat healthily, for one of two reasons: (1) People claim that eating a healthy breakfast sets you up for an entire day of healthy eating. (2) It gets the "healthy" out of the way and allows you to treat yourself for the remaining 4 meals (you know, lunch, snack, dinner, evening treat) since you did so well on the first one. I hold with the #2 people, here, but that's just me. And that's only when I eat healthily. Often, I start out the day treating myself for being awesome, and, well, it just goes from there.

This week, H & I are eating baked oatmeal for breakfast. Every. Single. Day. Why, you ask? Do we just love baked oatmeal? Why no, no we do not just love baked oatmeal. Handsome is less of a fan than I thought when I chose to make it, and I am only a fringe member of the oatmeal camp. However, Little Miss Mathy over here (that'd be me) didn't really consider the implications of making a breakfast dish that serves 12. Don't get me wrong, its very delicious. But... I mean, twelve servings...
