Coming Home

January 18, 2014 by Shari Eckstrom 7 Comments

“It’s a funny thing coming home. Nothing changes. Everything looks the same, feels the same, even smells the same. You realize what’s changed, is you.” – Eric Roth, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button screenplay

I made my way to San Diego this weekend and let me tell you it has been really rough. I mean, leaving 20 to 30 degree bone chilling weather, where I was bundled and snuggled up tight, to sit on a patio in sunny Southern California, drinking coffee and enjoying fresh oranges from a tree only 10 feet from my table, gee, it’s tough to handle. I’ll try though, I’m definitely giving it my best shot. Gingered Date Breakfast Bar- Pure and Simple Funny thing when one comes home, the roles of the past sneak back all too easily. I am a competent woman, strong and determined, pushing to succeed in all that I do, but as the youngest of three strong determined women in our family, I begin to blend and start to lose myself a bit.

Gingered Date Breakfast Bar- Pure and Simple In past times, this coming home and all it entailed, bothered me. I pushed hard to be seen and heard, constantly competing for every scrap of attention I could muster. But this trip home is different. I guess I have aged and mellowed over time. I realize, I am enjoying the opportunity to sit back and just be. It has finally sunk in, I have nothing to prove. This trip is going to be awesome! Oatmeal-Date-and-Almond-Br3 Gingered Date Breakfast Bars are gluten free and bring a new level of deliciousness to a quick on the go breakfast or snack at anytime of day. Dates and ginger make a great combination and add a perfect touch of sweetness. A great way to bring a smile to your face early in the morning.

    I like the idea of breakfast bars. I think my daughter would love these. Can I freeze them?

      Hi Michelle, thanks for stopping in. To answer your question the bars can be frozen, but I’m not sure I’d recommend it. These bars are a little more crumbly than most so I am not that freezing them wouldn’t cause even more crumbling. I believe it is because there is no gluten or eggs holding everything together. Hope that helps. Have a wonderful weekend and thanks for the great party!
      Blessings,
      Shari
