Cute Jack o'lantern Oatmeal

     As you can tell by my pictures sometimes I get a little creative with my breakfast. If your looking for a Halloween oatmeal for your kids or yourself this will surely get you excited! Today is apparently national oatmeal day so I decided to "dress up" my oats with it's own Halloween costume as a jack o'lantern. I think it's pretty cute!
