You Make My Dream (Come True) | Hall & Oates


Anytime I think about oats, I think of Hall & Oates. Why was I thinking about oats recently, though?

A few weeks ago I discovered cookies & cream oats at the store. I was pretty excited because I don’t eat much breakfast and anything cookies & cream has to be good. This theory didn’t live up to reality. They’re not bad, but I think the theory doesn’t apply to oats. All oats taste the same to me.

Why the question then?

Well, todays question is whether you make your oats with milk or water.

I’ve tried both ways. First I used water and that’s what I’m used to so that wasn’t anything new. I did think maybe it would be good with chocolate syrup maybe next time. That next time I tried milk instead of water. It definitely cooked up differently but ultimately tastes the same to me just more milky. I added chocolate syrup as well which really just make it more chocolate-y and I am not complaining.


My question is what do you use, why, and am I a total noob that I can’t make any spectacular oatmeal???

  1. I like the raisin, date, and walnut instant oatmeal by Quaker. And I use water. Not sure if I every tried milk. Hmmm. 🤔 sounds intriguing though. Bummer about the cookies and cream, because yeah, that should have been a good one.

      My go to has always been strawberries and cream when I pick an oatmeal. I have 2 more packets of cookies and cream and then I’m going back to the usual lol
