I love flavored coffee but don't like to make it in my regular coffee pot. It seemed to carry some of it's flavor over into my next pot of regular coffee. I don't use the flavored creamers because I don't drink my coffee with sugar and they all seem to be sweetened with either sugar or a substitute. So, for Christmas I became the proud owner of a Krueg single cup coffee maker. Now I treat myself to a couple cups of flavored coffee every day.
I also love oatmeal and eat it daily but don't have time to cook my favorite the "Old Fashion" kind so I depend on the instant that can be made in the microwave. As with my coffee, I love the flavored oatmeal but they too have a good bit of sugar or sugar substitute.
Today I made a wonderful discovery! I had about 1/2 cup of my cup of Caramel flavored coffee left and was getting ready to make my cup of oatmeal when it hit me. Why not flavor my oatmeal with flavored coffee. I was Thinking With My Taste Buds. I used flavored coffee instead of water and it is DELICIOUS! Oatmeal comes in flavors like banana bread, spice and apple cinnamon. I've just added flavors to my oatmeal such as Hazelnut, Caramel and Egg Nog. Any flavor you like in your coffee will be good in your oatmeal.

I'm from Georgia, moved to North Carolina by way of Florida. I've been in Charlotte for 14 years and love it. The recipes in my book Stir, Laugh, Repeat are all tested by "Food Testers" of which I now have 24. They try a dish and rate it from 1-10 with only those scoring at least an 8 making the book. My website is a holding place for my 2nd book Stir, Laugh, Repeat... Again. Please visit my site to find new recipes and tips. All recipes are easy, using common ingredients and according to my testers, great!
When I wrote my introduction about a year ago and a lot has happened since then. I now have 5 blog sites that keep me pretty busy. Two of my sites are dedicated to nothing but recipes. Martha's Recipe Cabinet holds recipes that will be included in one of my upcoming cookbooks. Martha's Kitchen Korner consists of recipes that are good but still need just a bit of work. On A Book and A Dish you will find my book reviews and the author's favorite recipe. Stir, Laugh, Repeat holds reviews written about my cookbook Stir, Laugh, Repeat and the site you are now on is the "mother" site for all of these. Here you will find cooking tips, simple recipes and updates for additions to the "offspring sites." So, enjoy!
