Granola

After I hike up a 2,000 foot mountain, I have found that I need something to help me back down the trail. The air is thinner at the top of a mountain, and it takes more energy than one would expect. I have tirelessly searched for a good granola recipe to sustain me. I have finally found a wonderful granola recipe, and I would like to share it with you.

Just kidding! After I get out of bed and eventually make my way to the fridge, I have found that it is usually time to sit down and eat some yogurt. Granola goes well on yogurt, and it sustains me until I can sit down again and eat lunch. I have a wonderful granola recipe, and I would like to share it with you.

I like granola.
