Oatmeal=teh gross

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I think Alton Brown makes everything as complicated as possible.
The recipe I was given at work involved simmering for 45 minutes. Alton's recipe seems like less work.
That's crazy talk, Lee.
I pretty much water the monster jade plant that came with the office every friday.
It really needs to be repotted, but I'm kind of afraid to move it, as its armsbranches are coming close to suspending the pot in midair and I'd probably break a lot of them.
I know pruning=good, I'm just resistant to it.
I have steel cut oatmeal sitting in my kitchen, but I never make it because of the long prep time. When it occurs to me that it would taste good, I'm hungry right then, y'know? I think I originally bought it to be an ingredient rather than a meal, though.
Some plants like a little pruning -- they're genetically built to survive getting nibbled on.
ita-- we have the overnight oatmeal a lot. Yummy, easy, and it's great to throw in various combos of dried fruit so it's different every time.

I hadn't actually scrolled down before. If you have a crock pot, that seems like a perfectly reasonable thing to do.
But I still laugh remembering my mother calling me with an emergency tone in her voice to tell me that crepes are not the big fucking deal (her words) Alton was making them out to be.
Cook's Illustrated did an oatmeal test a while back, and concluded that steel-cut kicks the collective asses of other oatmeals out there, and is therefore worth the extra time/effort. Not being a fan of oatmeal in any form, I have yet to confirm this in my own kitchen.
That's crazy talk, Lee.
You could be right. I also think bacon=teh gross, so most people don't agree with me when it comes to breakfast food.

Ha! At least Jess agrees with me.
