A hearty bowl...

I just took possession of this bowl. There are two of them. My sister kept the other.

It's definitely one of my favorite things now. You see, these were my Dad's oversized cereal bowls. Trust me, many times they were filled with anything but cereal (Dad was an ice cream lover, and these bowls held a LOT of ice cream!)

I made oatmeal in mine the other morning. The nights and mornings have been a wee bit nippy lately, so warm oatmeal hits the spot!

I add water to the packet of oatmeal, zap it in the microwave for 60 seconds, and then toss in some chopped walnuts, blueberries (or any kind of berries I have on hand), and add a bit of Almond Milk. It sure hits the spot on a chilly morning. And the bowl, of course, always makes me smile because it makes me think of my dad :)

I'm joining Claudia at Mockingbird Hill Cottage today for A Favorite Thing Saturday. Pop over and visit everyone, and be sure to share your own favorite thing!
