Remember Your First Fish?

Went over to South Mill Creek Lake this evening. We all caught several fish..............all huge of course..............OK, maybe not. Joshua's fish was about average size for this evening. You can definitely see how proud he is.

Steel Cut Oatmeal

A new favorite at our house is steel cut oatmeal. Steel cut oats are the whole raw oat cut into smaller chunks. It is less processed and therefor better for you. The down side it takes much longer to cook. 30 minutes vs 5 minutes. I found this recipe yesterday for making them in the Crock Pot overnight. They were creamy and delicious. I just added brown sugar, cinnamon and a little milk this morning. This was great!!

You could add anything you like...nuts, raisins, craisins, apples, maple syrup...the list goes on on. Give it a try! It was so easy.
