NWFlyer 2 #1 May 19, 2006 .... to oatmeal! It started in Toronto when there was a great little deli in my building that would sell oatmeal in the mornings. I'd have them add strawberries, and maybe almonds or walnuts. Now, in Atlanta, it's the most palatable thing on the breakfast buffet at my hotel, or if I wait till later, they sell it in the deli in my building. And I just made myself a bowl for lunch at home! Are there 12 step programs to cure this? "There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please. And with it comes the only basic human duty, the duty to take the consequences." -P.J. O'Rourke Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
