Pumpkin pie oatmeal 

Fall in a bowl 

Happy Monday Lovelies! 

I have an amazing breakfast recipe for you! I made it on Saturday and it was so 
delicious I had to share it with you. Not even mentioning I got to enjoy it on the porch 
looking at the lake :) 
Fall is beautiful, so let's enjoy all the fall fruit and veggies! 

Pumpkin pie oatmeal 

Ingredients: 

* 2 cups milk ( i used coconut milk)

* 1 cup rolled oats 

* 1 cup pumpkin pure ( I roasted a pumpkin! )

* cinnamon, honey 

 Combine all ingredients in a medium size saucepan, bring it to a boil and immediately
 reduce it down to a simmer. When your oats are tender you're done! :) It 
usually takes me 10-15 minutes. 
I cut up a pear and washed some grapes for the full fall breakfast experience!:) 

Be yourself, be happy, be creative,

What's in my Library bag ?

These books have been on my Amazon wish list for a while but I never got around 
to purchase them. 
So here is what I (freshly ) picked up from the library for October :

No More Dirty Looks : As you probably noticed I am very passionate about all things 
"green", so I am super excited to read this lovely book telling the " truth 
about my beauty products". 

We Were Liars : Well the cover told me everything I needed to know about this book: 
Young Adult + a John Green quote = must read :) 

Yes Please  : I know I am super late.. but I am finally reading this book.
 Mindy Kaling, Aziz Ansari and Amy Poehler.. I cannot get enough!

I Am Malala : I needed something more serious. I've been eyeing this book forever and
 I just saw that the movie is coming out so I just have to read the book first. 
I always read the books first ! 

It's All Good My Father's Daughter : I am always in the look out for new cook books, 
I thought I would give these a go. 

So that's what I have in my library bag.I feel very good about getting all these
 wonderful books this month, I am hoping they'll motivate me to read more. 
We are spending the weekend at the lake so I am looking forward to read and read 
on the deck with my cozy blanket and pumpkin spice chai tea. 

Enjoy your weekend! 

Be yourself, be happy, be creative,

Pumpkin spice doughnuts 

Good morning!

I 've been so excited about posting this recipe!!These little baked doughnuts are 
wonderful! If you are a pumpkin spice lover you have to try them!

I found this recipe on Pinterest (of course), but i used whole wheat flour, and 
coconut oil, just to make it a little bit healthier. This recipe uses a lot of 
refined sugar...I know, I know, but sometimes it's ok to cheat a little. :) 
Oh and don't forget to bake your own pumpkin so you can use that in your doughnuts!
