All Things Oatmeal

I can’t wait to talk about all things oatmeal. I’ve been an oatmeal lover since college and haven’t turned back since. From stove-top oats to overnight oats to slower cooker oats to oats in the Instant Pot…oatmeal will forever be my breakfast of choice.

Why do I love oats so much? Well, they’re…

  • High in fiber and antioxidants
  • Satisfying
  • 100% whole grain
  • Gluten-free and vegan-friendly
  • The best healthy breakfast ever

Plus, oatmeal makes you regular…aka it helps you poop. You know I’m all about my morning poop, so that’s just another one of the million reasons I love oatmeal.

So…….

I’ve been meaning to share some personal “news” with you for a couple of months now and I guess there’s no better day to do it than today. I’m quitting the blog.

Psych.

I’m single.

While I know that I don’t owe it to anyone to share my personal life on FFF, I feel like I owe it to myself to share it with you. FFF is supposed to be a place to inspire you to be the best version of yourself. The best version of YOU or ME doesn’t come with just the good. It takes difficult times in life to really make you who you are and this breakup is one of them. After 3.5 years, Blake and I parted ways in May and it wasn’t an easy thing for either of us to do. Sometimes when you’re running a thousand miles an hour and flying by the seat of your pants, you let that little word called “relationship” slip away. Sometimes two people who were once so in love can grow in different directions and not even realize they’re drifting until life happens. I don’t and will never regret a single moment from our relationship because I truly believe that every single person comes into your life for a reason, for better or for worse.

I remember when we had just broken up, I felt like I was dying inside and that nothing would ever make me sparkle again. My amazing friends and family kept repeating one thing to me- TIMEEEEE. My response at the time was- FUCK YOU TIME IS BULLSHIT. Seriously though, they were right. Time is my friend and I am happy. While I spared you a lot of details, I wanted to let you know that I am doing great. Heartbreak isn’t easy. It sucks, but life is good. I am loving every single second of my new and single life. I’ve got my own apartment and no one to worry about but my plants (which I kill on a weekly basis). I’m drinking boatloads of coffee, exploring Minnesota’s beautiful state parks, going to bed early, taking naps, laughing, and having a LOT of girl time.

Before we shift the mood to OATMEAL

…Just remember, social media can make any person’s life seem admirable and PERFECT (even though it most likely isn’t) and I know that I am guilty of abusing it in that way.
