And an on request entry ... porridge recipe!

Posted 02-24-2010 at 03:51 AM by Tinkster

Not much of a blog, entry, I admit, but it's one
of my standard breakfast dishes, and I've been
asked to put it up here ... so here we go.

Code:

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

Instructions
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}

	It was so nice of you that day that you put this recipe on your blog. My family members have been diagnosed with a low cholesterol problem and all us have started to eat Oats now (which is not normal for Indians) And your blog is proving to be of a great help in making that Oat meal edible which otherwise is tasteless. I'll be going again today to purchase those figs, walnut and cinnamon.

	I'm pleased to hear that you enjoyed the recipe, and that it helps your family as well. And I didn't realise that people actually read (& responded) to the blog - hence the very late response.

	I guess you haven't clicked the "Subscribe to this blog" link otherwise you would have got the notification of the comment. Keep posting the breakfast recipes (which don't require an oven), I usually skip breakfast most of the days

No, I hadn't ... I must confess that I had never
really thought about the implications of running
a blog; and the concept of monitoring response, well
... kind of slipped my mind.

	It seems you are not much interested in having people read your blogs , I wonder if there is some feature here by which you can stop everyone from viewing your blogs and then you can post anything without worrying about the consequences and that'll save a lot of paper too!

LOL, no, I meant we all humans sometime
or the other feel the need to write our
thoughts in the PAPER dairies, because
you are a human too (I am assuming
you are a human), you must be writing
your private thoughts to your private
dairy too, so if this blog was made private,
you could write here instead of wasting paper,

I hope I am clear this time

Nothing really... I guess I sometimes talk to friends on the internet though.
My Mom taught me at a young age to never write down anything you don't want anyone else to see, and for the most part, I've followed that advice.

Not too reign on your parade though -- sorry. Maybe I'm weird. O.o

I don't have close friends in real life, I dislike facebook/orkut things, so the only virtual friends I have are on LQ, and they are not too close too! So, I have to maintain a dairy..

Is that some English proverb? and what's it supposed to mean?

He meant "rain on your parade" ... and Anisha means diary, not dairy ;}
