Diet Fads

    Bowl of oatmeal
      squirt of honey
      spoon of jelly
         fills the belly  

    Nothing fancy
    Just the basics
    Diet fads ~
         It will fix

It's in capsule form, not heavy, nor light. Ideal and tasty to fill the belly, quite wholesome too.

Great healing properties in cinnamon, by the way. Used to put it in tea to help my aching knees. Worked great...

My "mudda" made oatmeal overnight on a black cast iron stove in a double boiler pot. You could stand a shovel up in the oatmeal. .... but it was the best oatmeal we ever ate....a little brown sugar and cinnamon ...amen.

I love oatmeal and eat it many ways, but haven't tried it with jelly. I have a baked oatmeal recipe with peanut butter and chocolate chips that is amazing, though!
