Oatmeal Cake

June 19, 2020 By Ashley Leave a Comment

This cake has been a family favorite for as long as I can remember. It's rich, moist, everything a cake should be and more. To top it off, with a name like "Oatmeal Cake," it can basically be considered a health food! Here's what you'll need... Bring the water to a boil, add the oatmeal and soda and stir until combined. Cover and let sit while you mix the rest of the

Instagram post 2339632649234126173_9786037935 🇺🇸What’s your favorite part of an M&M or Chocolate Chip Cookie? 🍪The cookie or the chocolate? I’ll be honest, I like the cookie more than the chocolate! These M&M  cookies are delicious no matter how much chocolate you add, they’re also a perfect treat for your 4th of July festivities!🇺🇸
.
•M&M COOKIES•
•1 C. Butter
•2 tsp. Vanilla
•1 tsp. Salt
•1 C. Brown Sugar
•1/2 C. White Sugar
•2 Eggs
•1 tsp. Baking Soda
•2 3/4 C. Flour
•1-2 C. M&M’s + more to press on top. *Cream Butter, (barely softened) Vanilla, Sugars, & Salt. Add eggs & stir slightly. Add Flour and Soda and stir just until combined, don’t over mix. Last but not least, stir in the M&M’s. I like the mini M&M’s but you can use the regular ones as well. I also like to add 1 cup to the dough and then press a few on the top after scooping them on the pan. Bake @ 375’ for 8-10 mins. I prefer Convection Bake if you have it. When using Convection, I still bake @ 375’ for about 7 mins.
Instagram post 2338904758301083050_9786037935 We added some labels to the garage this week and I’m loving them. The  @avery clear labels are perfect for these bins. And these bins are perfect for this garage! @30daysblog recommended them and I love them!  I love how you can see through them enough to know there’s something in them but they blur the objects enough to keep things looking tidy. I also love that they are only $3 & $5.🤗

•What excuses will they come up with for not taking care of their things now? “I didn’t know where it went,”🤷🏼‍♂️ just isn’t going to fly anymore!🤗
Instagram post 2338193627026785405_9786037935 The frames are hanging, once again, only this time they have pictures in them.🤗 If you haven’t been watching my stories than you don’t know what a hassle it’s been getting these hung. Every morning I found more on the floor. Here’s hoping they stay this time. •Now that I have pictures I want to hang a large sign on the blank shiplapped wall you see as you enter the tunnel. (Swipe to see it.) This tunnel leads to a b-ball court and swimming pool. On one hand I’d like the sign to be sports related like a quote from a famous athlete or something. And on the other, I’d like something personal to our family. What would you put there? Send me all your favorite quotes, or ideas, please🙏🏼. • In the meantime, if you see me following my child out to center field, don’t mind me, I’ve just got a few more frames to fill!😜 #coolmom .

Instagram post 2335316620743989731_9786037935 If my family had a “secret family recipe,” it’d probably be this yummy Oatmeal Cake. Lucky for you, it’s no secret and you can find it on the blog!🤗 Click the link in my bio! •Don’t let the oatmeal keep you from trying it! It has been a family favorite for as long as I can remember. It’d be a perfect addition to your Father’s Day dinner. The best thing about it is that it can practically be considered a health food! WIN-WIN!!! And you’re welcome! 😘 Have a great weekend!

Instagram post 2333863681735001509_9786037935 I cleaned a couple more cupboards today!💃🏻 Hanging my hot pads inside a couple of my cupboards has really helped keep my towel drawer in tip top shape. They used to take up so much room in that drawer. I hung two above my oven and two below my stove. They’re super easy to grab and everyone knows where they belong. I just hung them with some command hooks! How did we ever survive without command hooks? •Now the only cupboards I have left are the lazy susan and the water bottle cupboard. I don’t know how we accumulate so many water bottles but we do! Wish me luck!🤪
