In honor of Valentine’s day, I thought some Valentine’s Day themed oats were in order! This recipe was made on a whim, because of how much I love conjuring up new oatmeal recipes. I’m thankful for our snow day this Monday, which gave me extra time to work on homework and study, and let me enjoy some down time with a hot cup of tea! Sometimes it’s the little things that matter when it feels like everything else is chaotic! Hope you enjoy my recipe of the week. Stay warm this week and drive safely!
