Recipe: Coffee Oatmeal

Coffee Oatmeal
Serves 1

Ingredients:
2 packets Maple Brown Sugar Instant Oatmeal
2 empty mugs
1 measuring cup
coffee
1 sleep-deprived mom

1. Pour coffee into one of the empty mugs. Doctor it appropriately (so much cream and sugar that it makes friends uncomfortable).
2. Put water in measuring cup and microwave to boiling (for the oatmeal).
3. Pour entire packet of instant oatmeal into full cup of coffee.
4. Notice what you did.
5. Try to scoop oatmeal out of bottom of coffee mug and transfer to other mug.
6. Pour second packet into correct mug.
7. Add water to correct mug and stir.

The oatmeal is actually pretty good - a hint of coffee but nothing overpowering. The coffee, with bits of oatmeal surfacing every once in awhile, not so good.
