Cinnamon Toast Oats

Good morning everyone! The weekend is almost here (even though I've pretty much devoted my entire weekend to studying...how fun...)! So that's the good news. The bad news is that it is absolutely freezing out (I find)! Whenever it's cold out like today I always crave one thing, and one thing only, for breakfast. Can you guess what it is??

Today's spin on oats is a nice little junk cereal twist. I know, not the most healthy twist on oats ever...but it was filling and different! So I was satisfied.




I started off with plain oats (always done up in the microwave...to work with my very tight morning schedule...I have a habit of sleeping in a bit), and then added brown sugar and butter (I really loaded it on this morning).




Next I sprinkled on a good handful of Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal! I don't know why, I just thought it might taste alright! And it DID (very good, actually)!




Then I finished off the bowl with white chocolate chips (because apparently Cinnamon Toast Crunch just isn't sweet enough for me?), and a hefty splash of almond milk!




After breakfast I wandered out into the cold to get to my first class, Shakespeare. I forgot to have my coffee this morning though, so it turned out to be a another hour-long nap to the sounds of my professor's little Welsh accent...




I'm off to go get myself a cup of coffee now though! I hope you all have wonderful weekends!
