I feel almost guilty writing this but… I had a great weekend! I forgot what it was like having oodles of time all to myself. Normally I am waiting for Rob or waiting on Rob or doing things with Rob… this weekend was just me doing things for myself. It was very nice.

This morning I attempted a small scale experiment. I used less water in my oatmeal AND I reduced the heat to 60% but increased the time by 30 seconds. I also covered the bowl in saran wrap. AND GUESS WHAT? The same thing happened. The oatmeal spilled out and over the sides. This isn’t a 100% failure because since I used less water the oatmeal was pretty thick and I was able to scrape it off the paper towel that I used to line the microwave and back into the bowl so I didn’t lose as much as I usually do. I really hope Quaker Oats writes me back with some better suggestions.
