Simplicity of Oatmeal (rediscovered) with a Twist

 I simply was craving something different and refreshing for breakfast. So I took an old, but fulfilling standby -- oatmeal -- and added a few items to give it a "fresh" taste. I used brown sugar (instead of white) and blackberries for this satisfying meal. I eliminated milk -- just to enjoy the flavors purely.
 The combination of warm oatmeal and cool, juicy blackberries was a treat! It reset my tastebuds and brought back the comforting pleasure of eating oatmeal. Yum!
Items Used: 
         Quaker Oats Oatmeal
         Teaspoon of brown sugar
         Blackberries (Aldi's Grocery)



P.S. I'm not one to mix fruit with my food (pancakes and the like) so this was a change for me. I love fruit so when I eat it I usually want the taste of the fruit. So mixing these items was a definite keeper.
