Come Party With Me: Tailgate — Dessert
No Cal-USC tailgate is complete without a sweet treat and I like to serve cookies. Specifically, classic oatmeal raisin cookies — they're chewy, not too sweet, and scream Fall.
Cookies are also perfectly portable and can be made in advance, meaning they're ideal for a tailgate.
Burning Question: Are Traditional & Instant Oatmeal the Same?
My guy and I are both big fans of oatmeal for breakfast, and on a recent morning, the two of us got into a discussion about the differences between old-fashioned oatmeal, quick-cooking oats, instant oatmeal, and steel-cut oatmeal — all of which are in our pantry.

Taste Test: Jamba Juice Oatmeal
Because I had a coupon to try Jamba Juice's new oatmeal for a buck, and because Monday in San Francisco started with a serious chill, I decided to mix up my usual cold cereal routine and try this warm treat for a change.

Wake Up and Smell the Oatmeal!
There are some pretty fun alarm clocks out there, but this weekend the internet was abuzz over a different kind of alarm clock. According to Scotland's Daily Record, Quaker Oats is testing a bedside alarm in the UK. Now you'll be able to wake up to a warm bowl of porridge or oatmeal each and every morning.
Yummy Link: Banana Oatmeal Waffles
A fixed oven means these delectable banana oatmeal waffles will stay warm while you finish cooking up the batch. Personally, I don't think I'd have to use the oven. The batch would be devoured before the plate hit the table!
Comforting Classic: Oatmeal Cookies
Oatmeal cookies may be old-fashioned, but their homey goodness will never grow old. Many grandmothers pass the recipes down from generation to generation, and they are fabulous chewy, crisp, fresh from the oven or a few days old.
