That would make a nice lunch. I had my usual oatmeal, raisins, butter,
and brown sugar. With a glass of milk. I don't crave variety at 5:30 am.

Same as Cindy, I like my oatmeal made the same way -
with raisins, butter, and brown sugar.

Same as you, it's a late night snack for me. Actually a
late meal for me. I start with 3/4 cup of dry rolled oats

Just thinking about it now, I don't eat a traditional breakfast at
all. Wheat intolerance has a lot to do with that, as does avoiding
empty carbs. My main go to brekky is a bunch of herbs and leafy greens
from the garden, added to an omelet, usually with garlic and fresh
chilli.

I used to add milk, honey etc. like most people do.

For the past couple of years now my preference is for what I guess is
something not many people would like: Almond milk with dried chopped
apricot, some raisins and maybe some honey. I used to add dried
cherries, which were awesome but impossible to find here these days.
And a pinch of salt, when I remember it. Now it's more a late night
dessert/snack for me.

Oats are a superfood.

In theory I should also have an intolerance to oats, but it doesn't
seem to affect me. So oats are now also a 'super food'? I think the
term is used far too liberally.

The term is used for all kinds of trendy ingredients, but the real
superfoods are old school foods like oats and (red) cabbage. I guess
there's no money in making a hype around those.

Oats have the ability to lower cholesterol and decrease sugar spikes plus
making you feel full longer.

Raisins are healthful. I add just a teaspoon each of sugar and butter.
Maybe not even that much butter; I just scrape off a curl from the end
of the (refrigerated) stick.

YMMV.

Butter would depend if you have a cholesterol problem. Aren't raisins
mainly sugar? Actually, the only oats I ever eat are a filler or

There's some thinking that simple carbohydrates affect serum cholesterol
more than butter does. In any event, my cholesterol is low.

All fruit is mainly sugar. Raisins are high in fiber, iron, calcium, and
boron (which assists in calcium uptake).

With 1 teaspoon of brown sugar in my oatmeal, the raisins taste tart.

The only patties I eat are hamburger patties. That's why I'm conspicuously
silent during discussions of crabcakes, etc. Unless you count pakoras, which
I don't eat very often.

The only mystery meat part of live crabs is what they were
feeding on a few days before as they are bottom scavengers.

True. In my case though it's very true. I've never eaten
restaurant crab, canned crab or even the pasteurized crab
meat but I am tempted to try that sometime.

I really have caught or purchased, killed and picked all the blue
crab
I've ever eaten.

I did have Alaskan King crab a couple of times that someone
else did the dirty work. I just microwave the legs to hot.

Next on crab list is the Dungeness crab. Never had that.

Oh and...snow crab isn't worth eating, imo.

It'd help if you can avoid alcohol, if you're trying to lose weight.

>Tomorrow we're camping on a day where the heat index will be well over 100F (38 Celsius) to catch a glimpse of the comet. There's a perfect creek to stay cool in the day, but night time might be brutal, as it will still be 83 (28C) at midnight. Old and wimpy vs. get to see a comet. I think we're going to have to go with the comet. https://www.wunderground.com/forecast/us/mo/jadwin/KMOJADWI2 I guess as hot as it will be, I won't have to wear a mask.

Both of us are looking forward to camping once it warms up here in a
few months.

I've always liked camping in the late fall to early winter.
Nights are cold but day temps are merely cool.
Gets rid of many annoying insects.

I assume you are talking Virginia weather. Around here he expect snow by
November, and November cold always seems to chill to the bone.

Virginia and Maryland mountains mainly. Definitely milder than
farther north.

Also did a lot of camping at Cape Hatteras in the 1970's but
those were surfing trips, not mainly camping trips.
