It is pouring here today so I made a bowl of oats with toppings to get me through the dreary morning. If there is one thing I have picked up on by reading other blogs where the weather is inclement it's this - oats are magical.

My little dobie is still recuperating so she needs to stay out of the sweltering sun and inside.

Have you heard? Florida is the new Chicago. The weather rolled in from Arctica and blasted the tropics right out of its delicates.

The ice protects the strawberries by creating a barrier and preventing lower temps from penetrating the skin.
