I have been eating oat bran for the last few months, part of my diet. It doesn't come in instant, but only takes about a minute in the microwave anyway.
I always go for two. Unless I'm heaping it directly from a bulk bag of the stuff. And then I'm putting way more in my bowl than I oughta. It's the perfect antidote to the Canadian winter.
Karmyn is the host of Fun Monday this week with a subject that is near and dear to her heart. Not to mention her knees and fingers. But I mentioned them anyway. The subject? --- What's Growing In Your Garden. As soon as I signed up I grabbed my camera and headed out the back door. Alyssum, lady's mantle, gaillardia, Jupiter beard, and a bunch of other stuff I can't remember is blooming in this photo.

The two of them kept promising each other that "It is going to die soon, so we will just keep it until that day." Twenty-five years may seem like a very long life for a freezer. It is MUCH older than that. Sears only sold Coldspot through 1976. I thought that my parent's purchased this freezer in the sixties. My brother said he put the serial number 'on-line' and it matched a 1953 manufacturing date. Here is a close up of the make and model that
Last year I posted a photo at the first of each month of these three grandchildren that are growing up in our valley. I'm sorry I haven't remained so faithful. But, on this first day of June the hot summer sun came out to invite them to run and laugh and to beg grandpa and grandma to turn on the sprinkler. The camera came out, too.
