5 Reasons to Try Overnight Oats

Update:

The recent grey damp days were starting to get me down so I went out looking for some inspiration. Despite the dreariness, there are still many bright spots to find out there if you seek them.

I can’t lie…. it took me a few seconds longer than I am proud of to figure this out. It is now obvious that those balloons spell out “2022” but I saw S.O.S first.

I didn’t remember the liquor store but I do remember the Hallmark store in between CVS and Papa Gino’s. Great times riding our bikes to Papa Gino’s for pizza and pizza pumping quarters in the individual juke boxes at the tables. Back when parents let their kids ride bikes all over town.
