oatmeal weather

i could eat oatmeal everyday of the year, weather permitting. i never tire of it. i love the way it sticks to your tummy for what seems like hours, meaning less calories and longer lasting fill. but i do have a hard time eating hot breakfasts on hot days. it's been cloudy days and chilly nights lately. i realized today i am in the middle of my third consecutive box, yes my third(devin eats sophisticated yogurt and mueslix stuff for breakfast), so i guess you could say oatmeal season is here to stay. you can be assured of what i will be eating the next one-hundred-something frosty days. woo. i love having something to look forward to when i get hungry at night. i love less decisions at hours when my decision making skills are still in bed, or i'm simply too rushed. mostly, i love the freedom of rhythyms. now if only they sold freshly ground peanut butter i'd be in morning heaven.

i tried looking for pb at the local market. nothing. i followed a tip from a ward member and even went to the the carrefour in waterloo. it is massive enough to hold six different aisles for different countries. this was a USA section of the 'euro walmart,' look for the flag on the back. they had the strangest items, but no adam's pb. nuts.

1 cake mix: 4.95 euro cents = 6.67 american dollars

1 mustard: 3.85 euro cents = 5.19 american dollars

we didn't buy anything, from this aisle at least.

but we did walk away with the longest french bread loaf you've ever seen. i wanted to have a sword fight with them. kinda hard to sword fight with just one loaf though.

and look at this couch on the aisle next to the shampoo. could've fooled me as an anthro chair. i'm loving this euro walmart.
