Last week Bernie Sanders ate a bowl of oatmeal before his marathon 9 hour speech in Congress. This week McDonalds introduced oatmeal in their menu. Oatmeal is HOT!! But we always knew that. Our guests love my baked oatmeal as part of their hearty farm breakfast. David and Lois compete to scrape the bowl as a morning snack. Oatmeal: energy for barn chores, Congress, or having fun with friends. It is the “stick to your ribs” breakfast.
