strawberry shortcake 4 breakfast

I ❤️ making breakfast. It's perhaps in my top 10. So what's a girl to do when he wants eggs and she wants oatmeal? This girl gets creative💡👩‍🍳 which in my book doesn't equal complicated. As they say in France: moins est plus; less is more.

I'm all about simple with food and style. And most likely you'll find what you need already on-hand. So stay in those cute pj's and eat your dessert for breakfast. Shhhh. No one needs to know it's healthy, too!
