The Art of Oatmeal

Check out these great oatmeal faces. I only wish they weren't photoshopped.

When I was little, my mom used to make us "Surprise Faces." Basically just snacky foods arranged to look like faces on a plate. There are few things more thrilling for a six year old than realizing that an orange slice can be transformed into a smile, or raisins into eyebrows.

At some point my mother's food art became less appealing to me, at the time I thought she had run out of ideas. Grapes halves as eyes again? But really I think I just got too old to appreciate it anymore.
