My First (Real) Blog Post - What I Had For Breakfast

So the first thing I'm going to blog about is what I had for breakfast. Really. I've got over 11,000 followers on my other blog. If you don't want to follow me here then don't. I had oatmeal. I'm dabbling in minimalism right now. That's not a new religion. It's just de-junking the house. So I'm trying to get rid of anything I don't need or love or use. One of my weaknesses would be kitchen appliances. I have way more than I need but I keep buying more. Well, I did. No more. 

Anyway, back to my oatmeal. I make oatmeal by heating water with my coffee pot. Then I put some oatmeal in my bowl. (I use old fashioned oats. What can I say? I'm an old fashioned kind of gal.) Then I put in my toppings. Sometimes I use blueberries or strawberries, raisins, brown sugar, white sugar, cinnamon, today I used chocolate chips. Then I pour in the hot water and stir it up. Sometimes I cover it with a plate for a few minutes so it will absorb the water. Then I can make myself some hot tea with the rest of the water while I'm waiting. Very good. A lot of people get those nasty little instant oatmeal packets and put them in the microwave. I don't own a microwave so that's not an option. Oatmeal is easy and good for you. The chocolate chips... maybe not so much.

What alternate uses have you found for your kitchen appliances?

Welcome

Okay, so about fifteen minutes ago I was fixing my oatmeal with my coffee pot and I thought. Man! I wish I had a place to blog about this. (I have lost count of my blogs but I'm sure this wouldn't fit in any of them.) Anyway, a few clicks later I'm up and running with another one. Hee hee.
Welcome to my world.
