While I do enjoy eating plain oats, I suggest that the most delicious and useful preparation involving oats, is date squares! I think that there is not much in existence that can rival home-made date squares :-P

LOL, well, I cannot eat the computers but I suppose if I had a "room full" of them, I could sell off some parts and buy date square ingredients (seeing as how I ate the last of the oats the other day!)

P.S. - what am I doing now.... Well, I had gone to bed, but am not sleepy so I got up again.

Well ... personally I'm very fond of my version of the
good old porridge for breakfast. And my oat-banana cake.

Porridge is quicker ;} and easier to write down


50g whole grain oats
150ml milk
2 dry figs (roughly 35 g)
1 banana
25g walnut pieces
1 tsp cinnamon

Chop up the figs, mix with oats, add milk and soak
over night. In the morning boil the porridge up as
usual, add milk as required. When the porridge has
the right consistency, chop the banana in slices, add
it to the porridge and simmer for an extra minute or
so. Put in/on bowl/plate, sprinkle with the cinnamon,
top with walnuts. Yum! =o}

I am sorry to disappoint you, I didn't bake the cake, I don't have an oven, that's why, actually I have passed the receipe to one of my neighbours and she'll be baking the cake today,

I felt happy while reading the receipe as it will be easy for me to find those ingredients here in India.

And as far as that Oat receipe is concerned, I desperatly needed that, as I purchased lots of Oats but can't eat them as they are tasteless.

Now one more question, will that Oat receipe taste good if I just mix up all incredients, boil them and eat them directly rather than baking them in oven ?

I tried a Dell with XP and it tasted awful. Someone said that Vista is quite spicy. I prefer HP with Slackware.

Linux is organic and fair-trade.

If you are on a diet you could go for a Asus EEE.

Or even picking Blackberrys

Cool :} ... hope it turns out right! There's always a bit of
variation with ovens, temperature and baking times.

The recipe above is for a porridge, so no baking required
at all ... if you put the banana in from the beginning it
will pretty much lose all texture, disappear in the mix.
You'd probably need more than one to have a bit of a flavour
sensation in that case.


The cake (the recipe for which I haven't written down yet) I
wouldn't recommend to just boil up and hope it's nice; it won't
be. It won't kill, but the texture would be quite horrid I'd imagine.

It will be nice if you could put up the second receipe too in your blog so that it's easier to find, it will be difficult to search for the post# 829 otherwise

And then the newbie poster would be asked "What methods have you tried so far to execute people ?"

Search the LQ forums, this question has been answered many times before. There is no best tool and as always some one says "Try a few, make your own choice. Don't rely too much on other people's opinions."
