Why Oatmeal Heaven?

So, when I was a little girl, my dad consistently tried to make us eat his oatmeal. He put in water, raisins, and brown sugar. With oats, of course. And it tasted awful. No amount of sugar made it edible. But, I loved the Quaker quick packets (especially strawberries and cream), so I figured deep down that somehow there was a way that I could make oatmeal that was not only edible, but enjoyable and healthy.

This blog is my effort to share the little pieces of knowledge I was never taught or simply have yet to discover. And though I do hope to document my journey toward the discovery of Oatmeal Heaven, life's not just about oatmeal.
