Starting this cool, overcast day with
Fruit Baked Oatmeal... yum !
Mix together in a bowl...
(scant)1/2 cup oil
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
3 cups old fashioned oatmeal
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1 cup milk
1 tsp. vanilla
When all is combined,
add fruit of your choice.
I like to add frozen mixed berries.
Pour into a 8in. x 9in. pan.
Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
Bake at 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes.

Ever since receiving this HUGE Dahlia
for the Artisans' Porchwalk,
I have been loving these flowers...
so while at the Manheim Community Farm Show,
I went looking for the flower display...
I seriously may need to grow some of these beauties
in my gardens, next season !
While checking out the Dahlias,
I spied some tiny rubber boots...
so, so cute !
Just couldn't resist !
TINY !
more cuteness !
Some people really have an imagination ;)
I also spied this beauty...
REALLY want several of these !
The Penn State Extension said these
particular plants were experimental
and they would be disposed of, after the show...
can't I please take them home ??
(I was actually tempted to be a
"dumpster diver" !)
My 14 y.o. son entered a few items
in the Farm Show this year.
This is his 'Cut Paper Collage'.
His entry in the '3D sculpture'.
He loves to cartoon...
He entered 'Life Changes'
in the 'Color Drawing' category.
(No ribbon for this, but it's MY
personal favorite, because it shows
his personality !)
It was a great Farm Show Week.
Good food (every day), cool evenings,
lots of talent everywhere and ribbons !
(My son won two first place ribbons
for his artwork !! **Proud Mama**)
Maybe, I'll hire him on,
to draw Punch Needle Designs !!
;)
Enjoy your Sunday my friends...
