Baked Banana and Nut Oatmeal

Baked Banana and Nut Oatmeal

I got up at 5:30 am this morning to prep dinner and make sure I had time to make Brad a Valentine’s Day breakfast.

We already celebrated V day this past weekend on our trip to Nashville (part I and II), so today will be a bit low-key.  But I just can’t let the day pass without doing something a little special.

I stayed up way too late last night reading The Red Queen, so getting up before the crack of dawn was surely a labor of love.
