A Leap Month of Little Joys and Satisfactions: Making Instant Oatmeal


I needed something to keep my mind off of the news yesterday afternoon, so I put myself to work in the kitchen. One of the things I made was a large batch of cinnamon and brown sugar instant oatmeal, some in individual packets and the rest in a jar to make at home (snacks and quick breakfasts. I used the same method and amounts as I did in October.  I used very basic ingredients to make this: regular rolled oats, granulated sugar, molasses, salt, cinnamon, and for the individual packets -- powdered milk. (I left the milk powder out of the jarred instant oatmeal, as we can always add milk from the fridge, here. But the packets are designed to be cooked at work.)


In a very cheerful sighting today -- the Easter bunny's baby brother was spotted on our front lawn this afternoon. So cute!
