Well after two weeks straight of practically every meal containing, cheese, cream, butter or sausage in one form or another, we decided that our first meal of 2013 needed to be something healthy. To take a break from the overindulgence.
What could be nicer than a comforting, friendly bowl of hot oatmeal?
No one says it has to be the boring bland porridge of childhood!
I laid out a selection of toppings to go along with it:
- fresh blueberries
- dried cranberries
- brown sugar
- hemp seeds
- milk

It was wonderfully fortifying and a nice rest for the digestive system!

That’s what we had for breakfast yesterday – yum!
And didn’t it feel so comforting after so much excess??
Me too, Tammy. First meal on the first of the year. Made me feel very righteous.
Perhaps this is becoming a tradition in this time of over indulgence?
I had steel cut and red river mixed this morning with hemp & chi seeds , must be the weather also. We just came back from Florida and it is mighty cold here today.
Good to have you back. Stay warm!!
I’m totally with you on the “taking a break” trip! I’ve been pigging out and off my diet for weeks now. Just getting back to the routine now…our bodies will thank us!
Getting back on the wagon will feel really good!!
It does, for sure! Back in the saddle now well and truly…
Well done! I’m almost there. Had some pesky birthday celebrations to get out of the way, but I’m getting close!
Now you’ve reminded me that The Husband’s birthday is coming up. I’ll be off the wagon again in a few weeks!
Good for you!
