Happy weekend!
I don't know about you guys, but I'm sick of summer. Sure, summer is fun for beach time and whatnot. But when you're like me and you have no time for a quick trip to the beach, let alone a full vacation, summer is just hot. Really, really hot. If you're not in Florida, you may not be feeling it as much. But it is pretty miserable down here right now.
Oh, and did I mention the constant rain?
Anyway, given the constant weather issues, if safe to assume I'm spending most of my time inside dreaming about fall and cooler weather. And Halloween!
In the interim, it would be nice to get some beach time in. So I've been making dishes and decorations for the apartment that gives me a little bit of a beachy feeling. Today's overnight oats recipe is in that vein: Coconut Latte Overnight Oats.
