Like a complete breakfast at one go.

Lol.
It won't be long until Seville oranges are available. I'm sure you could think of a recipe to include some of them and oatmeal ?

I don't have anything to top with crumble at the moment, Von, but it is a good idea.

Get my big vat out eh?

Porridge for the village?

Crumble topping with syrup, Demerara sugar and butter. :-D

Done it again!

I should never be left alone to order anything on a computer!

Having searched for a long time, I finally found a place that was once more stocking sago. The crop must have finally recovered from the tsunami.

It was a wholefood supplier and delivery was something like a fiver unless you took advantage of their special offer and sent them an order over twenty pounds in which case it was free.

Wanting the sago and preferring to have food rather than pay for delivery, I ordered some other things, including two grades of oatmeal because a little bit might come in handy and I do have a book with oatmeal recipes in it.

I don't know what I did but the package came yesterday, containing the sago I had craved, the other things I had wanted and no less than six kilos of bloody oatmeal!

It is not even all medium or fine oatmeal either. One kilo of medium and five, yes five kilos, of pinhead oatmeal, that big ever so crunchy stuff!

Last night I made some treacle farls (had to type that one carefully!) and some biscuits. OH is getting a new tin of treacle to make some parkin, but what about the other five kilos?
