After seeing all the yummy oatmeal combos people keep posting, I was inspired to do one this morning. Last night I took oatmeal, vanilla almond milk, cherry Craisins, and some slivered almonds and put it in the fridge to soak overnight. This morning after yoga, I heated it up and proceeded to add some brown sugar and some orange marmalade.<\/p>\n

Sounds good so far, right?<\/p>\n

All that anticipation as I was making it, and after I took a couple bites I just didn’t want it. It tasted fine, but I was running late for work and for some reason I changed my mind about the oatmeal. So it’s sitting in the fridge for tomorrow. I forgot to take a picture of it too.<\/p>\n

Part of the reason I was running late was that I was packing my lunch and since I haven’t done a bento pic in a while I was busy taking pictures and then uploading to Flickr.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Not only have I not done a bento post in a while, but I haven’t used my little sandwich box in forever! I forget how handy it is!<\/p>\n

Today’s lunch is a turkey, havarti, and spinach sandwich on whole wheat bread. I have a small campari tomato and some strawberries on the side. Not pictured are some peppercorn ranch Sunchips and the last couple squares of my dark chocolate with orange peel.<\/p>\n

Hope everyone has a great day!<\/p>\n

P.S.<\/p>\n

Sweetie Pie was kind enough to remind me to remind everyone about this week’s <\/a>BSI<\/a>,<\/strong> which is BASIL!<\/strong> You have until midnight on Sunday to submit your creations, which I look forward to drooling over.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
