Every-Morning Oatmeal


For six months or so, Linden has referred to "oatmeal" as "whumpum"- no idea where she got that from, but it is PRECIOUS. Up until a couple weeks ago...

One morning, she woke up and promptly requested "oatmeal" for breakfast. RIP whumpum. It's crazy how fast kids grow and go in and out of phases. On one hand, I love the beauty of these fleeting seasons. It does make you appreciate each little quirk more. It might be gone in the morning! But also, I feel the inevitable my baby is growing up too fast!!! mom dread.



This is such a simple recipe to throw together. But I love that it's filling, warming and pretty. It is a non-negotiable staple at our house. Made this way, exactly, alongside the chugging of coffee at 6:30am. Hope this gives you a new take on a morning tradition!
