Editor’s Note

My friend Vincie came to visit and introduced me to his Overnight Oats recipe. I liked adding extra oat milk in the morning. It was delicious and sometimes I split the bowl between breakfast and lunch!

Besides being a master of disguise and an excellent chef, Vincie is also a skilled leather and fabric worker.

His creativity and attention to detail are amazing!
