Oatmeal

I tried a new way to cook oatmeal today. I found this recipe and thought it sounded intriguing so I tried it. It was good but not what I was expecting. I somehow missed the pudding like consistency reference and I kept waiting for the oatmeal to lose its liquid and be like regular oatmeal. I probably, no I DID let it cook to long but it still turned out fine. I am not sure I would eat it on a regular basis but good for a change of pace. I had the hardest time not stirring the oatmeal!! I have a tendency to "worry" my food as my great grandmother used to say. Flipping over and over too many times, stirring it too often, generally just messing with it instead of just letting it sit. I have always enjoyed cooking and now that we are cooking more and more instead of eating out or boxed/pre-prepared goods, I am enjoying trying new things again. Not so sure the family is enjoying it as much as I am, though!!!
