Sometimes, being alone is for the better. Why? Because if all you want to do is sit in an oversized chair, sip coffee and snack on a scone, no one’s there to stop you. Plus, an empty house means you don’t have to share this single-serving blueberry oatmeal bake. It’s dense and bready like a scone, but sweetened more like a muffin, thanks to real blueberries that burst open ever-so-slightly when they heat up. And since you’re only making enough for one, cleanup is a breeze. After all, you have more important things to do with your free (alone) time.
