Cool it Down

So I was making oatmeal the other day for the kids and (as usual) it was too hot. So I went to get an ice cube when my eye caught a glimpse of the frozen strawberries. Light bulb. I put one big strawberry in the middle of their oatmeal and not only did it cool it down, but the girls ate every last bite (oatmeal AND strawberry).

You're a genius! Now I know what to do with my frozen fruit I didn't eat over the summer

I just noticed your updated photos on the side...or maybe not updated and I just don't pay attention. Kenzie is looking more and more like her grandma pollock!

That is a great idea and it won't water it down, my kids hate when it gets all watery from an ice cube.
