I do most of the grocery shopping in our household. The reason I do that is I have time in the afternoon when the stores aren't so crowded. Since I do most of the cooking too it just makes sense to have the cook know what is in the pantry to prepare. Like a lot of you I get in a hurry at the grocery store. I rush in to get a few things and just go by instinct instead of actually reading the package I'm about to purchase.

Such is the case with my morning oatmeal. I like the oatmeal that is peppered with bits of dried out strawberry. It makes for a more tasty heart healthy way to start the day. However I have found that berries are the default go to garnish for oatmeal. So you better look close if you want the strawberries because if you don't you could find yourself in a similar predicament as me.
