Off to a wedding shower today an hour away. "Good Lord willin' and the creek don't rise" as the old saying goes. The north eastern part of the state three hours away has extensive flooding and several family members have been evacuated. The western part has had severe blizzards, with devastating effects for cattle ranchers (and beef buyers) and the middle of the state (that's us!) had a wild blizzard followed by heavy rainstorms causing flooding along the waterways, closing roads and wiping out bridges so caution is called for everywhere. What a winter!! Thanks for stopping by to add your awesome posts!

It is snowing -- beautiful big flakes drifting slowly downward covering ground and branch generously. Such a pretty sight. From inside-- where it is a full 60 degrees warmer than outside. I'll save you the calculation and say it is 12 degrees out there. Thank goodness there are distractions -- such as the awesome posts you're bringing to the party. Thank you for sharing!!!

Brownie Baked Oatmeal
Brownie Baked Oatmeal is wonderful for a special breakfast. Soo decadent and delightful with 8 grams of protein and, with milk, 32 carbs per serving. When Valentine’s Day falls in the middle of the week, it is sometimes hard to find time to celebrate. Make this the day before and refrigerate before baking 20 minutes on Valentine’s morning – a special glow all day long! Or celebrate birthdays – or acceptance into college of choice – or making the cheer squad – or any other special occasion. Customize Brownie Baked Oatmeal with your choice of chocolate chips. We like dark chocolate so that’s what I usually choose. If all I have on hand is semi-sweet, that’s the choice. Both good. I’ve not tried white chocolate chips, but I bet they would be good and have some “visual interest” , ... [Read More]
