<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So! Its back to school season, which sucks but in a strange way i'm kind of excited about it! Mostly because back to school means Autumn is just around the corner. Forever my favourite season. <br />Oh and <i>*cough*</i> my birthday<i> *cough* </i>October 6th<i> *cough*</i></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Anyhoo, i decided to kick off my back to school series with a quick back to school breakfast. This recipe is perfect not only for all you busy students but for work too! If you tend to be tight on time in the mornings and find yourself...<i>dun dun duuuuuun</i> NOT HAVING BREAKFAST <i>*Gasp* *Faints* </i>i shudder to think of such things...always have breakfast! always! well, this recipe is for you... </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" frameborder="0" height="266" mozallowfullscreen="mozallowfullscreen" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/UfYcWrVBuH8?feature=player_embedded" webkitallowfullscreen="webkitallowfullscreen" width="320"></iframe></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">What you will need:</span></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">An air tight jar<br />A fork or spoon<br />Measuring utensils<br />A strong mixing arm! </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>Ingredients:</b><br />1/3 cup Rolled Oats<br />1/3 cup Greek Yogurt<br />1/3 cup Almond Milk<br />1/4 of a Banana (or 1 small banana)<br />1/4 cup Berries </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Granola </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Now all you need to do is put all of the ingredients, except for the granola, in the jar and mix with your spoon or fork! its that simple! Pop it in the fridge overnight (or it can be ready in 2 hours) and when you're ready to eat it, crumble some granola on top and there you go! It takes no more than 10 minutes to prepare.</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">There are so many variations with this recipe too, you could swap out the banana and berries with so many other foods.

It is getting cold 'round these parts and the wind is picking up. We are full of coughs and runny noses. Fall is in the house. So this morning, while reading <a href="http://oliveourhouse.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">this post</a>, I drooled over this picture.<br /><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1w39U8U66qUk-Tjm6TRHO7xRpwcvfme7TyaEo9Yg1M8zHZccfrobTfZbvif6iOjgMK46-ZP1sCieGLdUBDADIyjbqg5hF5cRdPz4oIfNTviQV1htm-HNGMwUeVCNDBr6wAzRkXa2a5DFt/s1600/IMG_9785.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1w39U8U66qUk-Tjm6TRHO7xRpwcvfme7TyaEo9Yg1M8zHZccfrobTfZbvif6iOjgMK46-ZP1sCieGLdUBDADIyjbqg5hF5cRdPz4oIfNTviQV1htm-HNGMwUeVCNDBr6wAzRkXa2a5DFt/s320/IMG_9785.jpeg" width="320" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">oliveourhouse.blogspot.com</td></tr></tbody></table>Warm, caramely (is that a word?) apple goodness. I was still dreaming about it when I turned on Ina at lunch and what was she making? Apple Crisp. I took these as signs from the culinary gods that I needed to make some apple crisp. When Ina speaks, I listen.<br /><br />I had made <a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/neelys/apple-crisp-recipe/index.html" target="_blank">this recipe</a> a few years ago at Christmas and it was a crowd pleaser. Syrup is the bacon of the dessert world, so anything with syrup is awesome (I did add a bit of Ina's flair though by adding some lemon and orange zest).  I also opt for one baking dish rather than ramekins. I love a cute ramekin as much as the next girl, but it sounds a lot better when you can say to yourself "I only had one <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: xx-small;">big</span> piece of apple crisp." rather than "I ate 4 ramekins of apple crisp."<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj89zwdKWm3wAU0TkJqXN61CwY05u1Ioj55Sg-mSEA-PEVZZEki8QxhrMBmB21um0ZEPlmwSI0cn6kkoozAZHIzoXjLC8AM9eTNmzV4uuw4bjtrCY6Gf8uoapECgXMVpLkFnwXS204sghRA/s1600/PB100912.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj89zwdKWm3wAU0TkJqXN61CwY05u1Ioj55Sg-mSEA-PEVZZEki8QxhrMBmB21um0ZEPlmwSI0cn6kkoozAZHIzoXjLC8AM9eTNmzV4uuw4bjtrCY6Gf8uoapECgXMVpLkFnwXS204sghRA/s320/PB100912.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br />Nice warm apple crisp, cozy slippers and a little Bravo. A good Thursday night.
