Half a cup of Old Fashion Oats, 1/8 tablespoon of cinnamon, and 7 ounces milk. Cook in a 1000 Watt multistage microwave oven for 1:30 minutes at full power until milk begins to boil, then the second stage cooks for 2:30 minutes at 30% power. Let stand for 1 minute before removing from microwave. Add 1/3 cup of walnuts, 2 tablespoons of sliced almonds, 1 or 2 tablespoons of pure maple syrup and a handful of blueberries. Delicious and nutritious.

Oatmeal has the flavor of childhood. It brings back so many good memories to me. I always put my. mother's fried potatoes in my oats and even fried bologna diced up. It's the best breakfast in the world with a steaming hot buttermilk biscuit loaded with fresh homemade butter on a cold morning when your fixing to catch the bus before school.
