Practically bounded out of bed this morning with the temptation of two wonderful things: Gossip Girl and oatmeal!
Knocked out breakfast with a fab combo of munch + crunch texture:
- 1/3 cup oats, soy milk, water, pinch salt
- Half banana
- Splash vanilla
- 1/2 tbsp chia seeds
- 2 tbsp cooked wheatberries
- 1/4 cup Daisy Cottage Cheese
- Sprinkle Mix My Granola
- Spoonful MaraNatha AB
Plus some of Maggie‘s green tea. I’m saving up my coffee fix for a morning study date with Victoria!
But the best part was the awesome episode of Gossip Girl topping!
