Never had oatmeal at Starbucks. Is it steel cut?
You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.
I urge everyone to try salting their oatmeal instead of putting sugar on it. I tended to find sweetened oatmeal somewhat cloying. Then a Scottish friend suggested that I try it "the proper way" i.e. with salt and I was an instant convert.
I use steel-cut oats, and cook them with a spoonful of currants. I stir in a spoonful of chopped dried cherries at the end. I serve it with sprinkle of salt and milk or yogurt (or both). It's really good!

I totally read this as "I nuke McCain...."
Hah! I did too.
The reason there's an edit is I wrote McCain at first!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
A tabloid is apparently reporting that Jamie Lynn Spears is pregnant again. Oh, my god, y'all.

I like the Bob's Red Mill 5-grain hot cereal. It's oatmeal, wheat berries, barley, and two other things that I can't remember right now. It's got a much more interesting texture and flavor than just plain oatmeal. I make it with unsweetened soy milk instead of water, and put honey on top.

I think so. It was satisfactory. Filled with adequatulence.

She's practically a Palin !
(Notice how they can't seem to plan a pregnancy? What is UP with that?)

Yeah, I definitely need a pinch of salt in the pot when making oatmeal. So bland otherwise. But then I put sugar on too!
