So what do we eat?

Oatmeal is a staple of our morning meal. John has his with maple syrup and raisins. I, not particularly fond of oatmeal, have mine with Splenda and cocoa! (Remember the no-bake cookies with chocolate, peanut butter and oatmeal?) I leave out the peanut butter now and feel like I'm having a bowl of cookies for breakfast. Yummy!

For lunch we had the leftover lasagna from last night. Then we polished off the rest of the apple pie.

Tonight, we part ways. John is having a can of Hormel Vegetarian Chili with Beans. I am making a cabbage soup. (cabbage, onion, carrots, tomatoes, and veggie broth). I love it. He hates cabbage and anything made with cabbage. I'm making a big pot of this stuff so I'll probably be eating the leftovers for a few days. I don't mind.

He'll probably turn to one of his favorites: a big baked potato covered with a can of cream style corn :)

Okay...you have my attention. Give me the specifics on the cocoa, splenda, and oatmeal. I'm all about cookies for breakfast!

Here ya go! 1 serving of oatmeal (about 1/2 cup before it's cooked)
2 or 3 packets of Splenda to taste.
1 tsp. cocoa powder.

Just stir it up :)
Sometimes I put in half a mashed banana too.

It's yummy. I have a granddaughter that asks for her chocolate oatmeal at home now. :)
