Well, not really, but that title seems fitting for the season.
(should've been titled This, That, And The Other Thing...Again.)
(or maybe The Best Overnight Crock Pot Oatmeal Ever.)
-------------------
I was so encouraged by your Christmas ideas - they were all fab-u-lous! We are changing up our routine this year, and I am really excited! I felt so blessed from your words, there is no doubt in my mind that God has used them to confirm our convictions :).

I wanted to share this overnight Oatmeal Recipe that I just love. On the eve of holidays, I often make a crock pot breakfast casserole, or some kind of yummy apple cinnamon oatmeal in the crock pot. It is just nice to wake up to, and it makes the house smell fantastic. Let's all pray that the delicious smell doesn't wake this pregnant lady up through the night, because I'm not above fixing myself a bowl at 3am :).
This little lady loves to help in the kitchen right now, and the oatmeal is a perfect recipe for her to do so...
Mercy, she looks so old.
Anyway. Here is the recipe:
Overnight Crockpot Oatmeal with Apples
2 apples, peeled, cored and sliced
1/3 cup brown sugar
4 cups water
2 cups old-fashioned uncooked oatmeal
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
(I double the above recipe)
Mix brown sugar and cinnamon with apple slices, coating apples. Mix oatmeal with water and salt. Put apples in bottom of crock pot and pour oatmeal mixture on top. Do not stir. Cover and cook overnight on LOW (8 to 9 hours). Recipe from Recipe Goldmine.
In the morning, stir thoroughly. Serve with milk :).
Easy right?? And so yummy!

We are heading to visit family tomorrow and I will be out and about with my mom on Friday. Shopping the day after Thanksgiving is like a tradition for mom and I. We mainly just like grabbing some coffee and watching the crazy crowds - well, that and Target has their Disney Princess Dolls on sale for $4.99. It's a win win :).
I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving!!

Happy Thanksgiving!
yum. I am not an oatmeal eater but that sounds wonderful. The oatmeal doesn't get too mushy? Might have to try it and change my ways starting January.
May your family have a wonderful fun filled day.
Sounds so good! I'm gonna have to give it a try!
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family! I can't wait to try this oatmeal recipe...should've grabbed some apples while I was at Wal-mart last night at midnight! lol
