Good morning...
I slip to the windows... Regular time, at six in the morning. Intense mist, gray swirling fogs... My world is swathed in delicious moisture as if long, lost lives have again found each other----the earth and the rains and cuddling in sweet harmony this morning. A day off from school, so newly begun...
31 years ago Labor Day brought me a new baby.... My son will be 31 on Wednesday. So will I... Don't we sometimes feel we only began to learn when we started teaching our children just what life includes...
Hot Almond Joy Coffee on the porch with Mom and some Oatmeal bars... I hear the birds, the sunrise... and the chocolate chips calling my name.
Oatmeal Breakfast Bars
1 cake mix yellow ... or try something spicy....
2 c. quick oats
1 1/2 c. melted butter
1/2 pkg. chocolate chips
that's it. blend all but chips until crumbly. press half in sprayed 9 x 13 pan. sprinkle chips. i could see some almonds or pecans here... or some raisins... crumble and pat on the other half and bake 20-25 min.
cool... if you are so inclined, and I wasn't... drizzle with warm caramel.
