I use an even easier overnight method. For a single serving, I put the oats in an insulated coffee travel mug (about 12 oz.), fill with the boiling water and close the lid. The next morning, drain off any remaining water (through...

writing, he looked at me appraisingly and said “I need to buy you a coffee”. We headed down the coffee shop, and he bought me an insulated mug (so we could continue our bookstore hop) and ordered the coffee for me. It...

on the street that runs east and west at the very south end of town – I think it’s Loaf & Mug. They have a patio for outdoor dining. Toulousse is also suppose to be good (I haven’t eaten there). I think...
