Good morning! 
I’m so jazzed right now. I have some exciting news to share with you guys! First, let’s whiz through breakfast!

This morning’s bowl of oatmeal was a good one. 
Some how the random mix of ingredients worked well together!
In the mix:

- 1 cup water
- 1 tbsp ground flaxseed meal
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
- Pomegranate arils
- Raisins
- Sliced almonds
- Cinnamon
- Scoop of peanut butter
I also drank some iced coffee with breakfast.

I think my best quality is that I am a big kid! Luckily I’ve had the chance to babysit all through college so I’ve been able to have my coloring and cartoon outlet! Also didn’t you mean 564? I got excited for the apron for a minute!
congrats on your new blog!
Bummer, Im always the one before or after your giveaway winners… ill keep tryin-one of these days
.. and if I weren’t such a dummy, I would’ve kept reading to see you explained how to contact you right after. Sorry!
my favorite quality is my ability to think quickly on my toes – it’s helped small problems from escalating on several occasions!
also, out of total curiosity – how tall are you?
