COOKED: Yogurt And Oatmeal Or Why I Should Stick To Bulk Oatmeal

I eat so much oatmeal. I've just recently run out, and for the first time I haven't immediately restocked. I know, I know, why write this post if I don't actually have any oatmeal? Because my friend(s), this lack of oatmeal has made me appreciate it so much more. Right now I've got this great image of me, twirling in yellow, sunny fields, caressing a big, beautiful bowl of oatmeal. Raw oatmeal, that is. For as much as I enjoy the daily bowl of hot, steamy oats, I enjoy raw oatmeal piled on top of yogurt more. Cinnamon and flavors both optional. Also, I'd like to clarify that I'm not putting a respectable sprinkling over my little bowl of yogurt. No. I go for oatmeal nirvana and load up my yogurt with as much oatmeal as it can stand. Think of a paste-y consistency, and my oatmeal concoction rides the fine line between that and stupidity. Maybe I just tolerate oatmeal well, but this usually means I end up eating at least a full cup of raw oatmeal in one of these snacks. Maybe "snacks" is a better way to put it. Later I'll get a crazy look in my eyes (I have extensive mirrors here) and go back for a second cup. Then the midnight munchies come along...
