Oatmeal!

I made oat­meal for the very first time this morn­ing. Tasty!

Also dis­cov­ered how much brown sug­ar one has to put in to “real” oat­meal in order for it to taste like the instant stuff I grew up with. Scary. Real­ly dis­turb­ing. Prob­a­bly 8 – 10 tea­spoons for one-half a cup of oat­meal (dry mea­sure­ment, of course). That’s up to 150 emp­ty calo­ries to make it like it tast­ed when I was a kid.

Need­less to say, I won’t be load­ing my oat­meal with that much sug­ar again. Nonethe­less, yummy!
