This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Quaker Oats. All opinions are 100% mine.
As I said in my May Days post, life is pretty busy here these days. So I thought I'd be fine running to the store without eating a complete breakfast. Coffee and a big glass of milk should do.
Big mistake!
I knew I was in trouble when I started looking for cookie samples in the bakery department, so I left in search of a healthier alternative. Enter Quaker Soft Baked Bar!

• Excellent source of 5 B-Vitamins
Still, I resisted the urge to put the box of Cinnamon Pecan Bread Soft Baked Bars in my cart without a coupon.
Once I find some coupons, I will probably buy one box of each flavor: Cinnamon Pecan Bread and Banana nut Bread. I know my girls would love these for breakfast! And I'll feel good about serving them this wholesome food.

All my coupon blogging buddies: if you have seen a coupon for these, please let me know!
Thank you!

I'm guilty of the same thing! I usually am rushing around in the morning trying to get my daughters out the door...I feed them, but not me!
