Today is a banner day.

I ate a full bowl of oatmeal.

Well, I think it could be called oatmeal. My friend and co-choir member, Jo Orr, told me about Quaker’s Simple Harvest. It’s instant multigrain hot cereal with oats, barley, wheat, etc.

So, I bought a box last week. There are several flavors: Apples with Cinnamon; Vanilla, Almonds and Honey; and Maple Brown Sugar with Pecans. The latter appealed most to me.

This morning I added 1/2 cup skim milk to a package of Simple Harvest, zapped it in my microwave, tasted it, tasted it again and again, until I had eaten the entire bowl full. And it was good.

I ate oatmeal. And liked it.

Finally.
