Keeping Up

Hello there!  How was your weekend?  Our weekend was packed end to end with projects and cleaning. I did manage some scheduled sewing time while Mr. P caught up on his surfing.  We both had to have our "fixes", you know.
Lately, I've been making our granola.  Carolina is at fault, again.  Check out her recipe card here.  I think she needs to make a cookbook filled with cards like this.  Anyway...I usually make it with dried cranberries, blueberries and pecans.  Occasionally, I'll throw in dried cherries and goji berries too.

Mr. P has decided he likes my homemade granola better than the store bought stuff, so I've been making bigger batches.  Yesterday I switched it up and used golden raisins and crystallized ginger.  Yum!  I'll definitely be making it this way again.

Some of you might think I only consume coffee for breakfast.  And you are forgiven for thinking it.  But I really am one of those people who must have breakfast.  No breakfast and I'm worthless all day long.  So, if you're like me and eat breakfast every day, and if you have a favorite granola, I'd like to know what's in it.  Leave a comment and tell me about the best granola you've ever had.

  1. if you haven't tried them yet, the plum amazins from sunsweet are great and would be good in granola and a trail mix (we called it gorp in our house)

  2. Is granola the same as museli? I used to make my own with lots of fun things but I've gotten out of the habit. I should start again. I like the sound of your combinations!!

  3. Wow you have been busy since I was last able to check in. Love the new bag, can't wait to see it in the AMH fabric too. I love granola; I made my own once, but too many things supercede granola on the "to do" list.
