Oatmeal for Breakfast


I'm so happy a got to wake up late today.   I'm having a quick breakfast this morning so I can go to the supermarket.  I need to pick up some food staples like eggs and milk.   I'm eating instant oatmeal for breakfast.  I keep a stash of instant oatmeal in my cupboard for days like this.  This one is from Kashi, I added the goji berries.  

 I couldn't believe when I opened the window curtains this morning that it snowed last night. Wow strange weather. 

 Today I'm going to bake bread using liquid levain and make more yogurt.  I got some levain from a friend of mine at the ceramic studio.   She has maintained this levain for about 4 years and she gave me some of it so I could start my own.   I'm really excited.   I have some experience making bread with my own levain in the past.   It's a commitment you have to feed it regularly and make bread regularly but it's worth the work.  I loss mine a few years ago because I got too busy to feed it everyday, so I just use it up and didn't make anymore.   My friend told me that she keeps her levain in the frig and feeds it every four days.  Well that better,  I think I can handle that.   I'll post some pictures of my progress with the levain.   I'm off to the market.

  2. wow that great, It so good for you too, most kids hate oatmeal. I used to eat oatmeal everyday for one year and I got so sick of it I couldn't even look at it, so now I really try to eat different cereals and porridges weekly.
