A Blueberry is not a Pumpkin

Hello chocolate chips!

Happy Thanksgiving! It’s a cooold one here. I just got back from a miserably-windy run (“feels like 31” with 30mph wind), and now I’m looking forward to a warm breakfast.

The house smells like cinnamon, as I made vegan Pumpkin Baked Oatmeal for my whole family!

Well, everyone except the little sister, that is. Hers is blueberry-cobbler boatmeal, since she doesn’t like pumpkin. Sacrilege, right? No worries: I love pumpkin enough for the both of us!

Today, I am thankful for ____________

I am thankful for Fs. Family, friends, and… fudge babies. Now that I think about it, I’m just thankful for all of you, in general. Everyone who takes the time out of his/her day to leave me a comment… do you know how much it means to me??

In short, if you’re reading this, I’m thankful for YOU!

    I’m thankful for SO much! The opportunity to go back to school, my health, my family, my lovely boyfriend and our sweet doggies, to have all my needs met (even if all my wants aren’t always met!), and for my blog and the outlet it is providing me! 🙂

    Down here in Austin we’re still in the dang 70s… till this afternoon!

    Happy Thanksgiving, Katie!! xoxo

    hmmm … I never know what to say at Thanksgiving when people ask what I’m thankful for. Everyday, though, I am thankful for my cat! and for the Golden Girls, because that show is awesome.

    Happy Thanksgiving! That does sound like miserable wind 🙁 I hate wind! Ugh… you’re such a trooper! I must admint I was a weenie yesterday I was SO cold, didn’t have a jacket, and it was like 57 degrees out lol. 😉

    I am thankful for my Beebits! He’s my joy 🙂 I’m also thankful that I have a really good job that allows me to still spend time with my wee man, AND the fact that I’ve made it this far in life lol.

    And, Katie, I’m thankful for you too – you’re so inspiring and you make the most awesome yummy foods that you share with all of us! 🙂 Thanks!

    Happy Thanksgiving Katie! I am thankful for my family above all, but also my strong body that allows me to dance and run, our abilities to choose to eliminate animals from the dinner table, and awesome vegan bloggers like you who give so much inspiration 🙂

    Love the idea of Blueberry boatmeal! Did you just subsitute blueberries for the pumpkin in the recipe? You are so sweet and even though we don’t have Thanksgiving in the UK, I’m thankful for family, friends and blogs especially yours. 🙂

    Happy Thanksgiving, Katie!

    I wish we had such a holiday to show how thankful we are for the little (and not so little) things in life but since we don’t I will just pretend to be American for a day 🙂 . So I am thankful for my family (dog included 😛 ), for true friendship, for my obstinacy and last but not least for all the wonderful people the blog world has met me with.

    Thank you for making me feel like a part of this!

    And I’m thankful to you! … And for being called a chocolate chip (it’s so cute!) … and for chocolate – can’t forget that one.
    Your blog is a source of such inspiration, hope you’ve had a wonderful day and have a fabulous year to come 🙂
    Happy Thanksgiving!
