dear readers, i need to tell you about something that doesn’t make me proud. the above picture represents my breakfast from a few months ago. skfl and i started house hunting and were running late to meet our realtor. i thought it would be the perfect excuse to hit up a mcdonald’s drive-thru. they were of course understaffed and overcrowded at the two locations on the way. that led to more time lost. with ten minutes left on the clock, the only logical solution was a stewart’s shop. [one of the things i love about skfl is that he actually says the whole name of the place, no straight up stewart’s like the rest of us. he even pronounces rensselaer the correct way]

i wasn’t thinking clearly and knew that caffeine was a must. the bright blue packaging spoke to me and i went for it. the frosted flakes were a long lost friend and the red bull, well that was my first and probably last experience with the stuff. the snack did the trick and was an important reminder to always make enough time for ugly oatmeal.
