jana's breakfast of champions

--1/3 c. Irish Steel-Cut Oats, cook (the kind that come in a can and take half an hour to cook)
--1/3 c. Trader Joe's lowfat organic vanilla yogurt (yah, it'd probably be tastier w/creamline, but I've gotta watch the calories)
--one peeled, diced, fresh peach (a nectarine will do, too)
--a handful of sliced almonds
--a splash of Cannon vanilla (top secret family recipe that involves vanilla beans imported from Tahiti that ferment in dark bottles in the back of the spice cupboard)
--a dash of hand-grated nutmeg

Stir.
Throw your head back and chew in ecstasy.
If you're really lucky--like I was this morning--you will get a shoulder massage while eating. If so, make deep sighs of satisfaction and swear to start every morning just the same way.
:)
PS: If you're eating this for dessert, as I am wont to do, you can increase the vanilla splash to a TB or 2....
