Chocolate Peanut Butter Oatmeal
"It's like having unbaked cookies for breakfast, without the butter and extra sugar. When I haven't had chocolate chips, I've used other chocolate. (Dove Promises are really good. I've also used Godiva cocoa.) I recommend using a large microwaveable dish (I use a 4-cup Pyrex); I discovered the hard way what a mess this can be in too small a bowl. And I always just eyeball the ingredients (except the oatmeal), so feel free to play with the measurements. It's not low fat, but it's soooo good."

I grew up in Ohio. I've been a student, a teacher, and a student again. And now I've moved (or, rather, am currently in the process of moving) to British Columbia because I fell in love with a writer, who I met online because he was looking for an editor--or at least an honest opinion.
My husband and I have the most intense differences of opinion regarding his writing and how we do things in the kitchen. He's a "chop it up small and throw it in a dish" kind of a guy, and I prefer to follow recipes that others have had success with. Our adventure with making blackberry jam and jelly a few years ago brought out some claws, mostly because he didn't want to follow directions. None of it jelled, so now we have jars of (very yummy) blackberry syrups, because we're not really interested in redoing the whole process.
