I used to make it from the round cardboard box with the Quaker guy on the front. However, SOMEONE in our home who runs to the grocery store and is very helpful, has returned three times with the buy one get one free instant oatmeal. (Maybe four times) So I fix it with half and half. I like the dates and nuts, and the maple one, and the brown sugar. Sometimes I use skim milk to make it. That is usually the week just after I have been to the doctor for a checkup.
I used to collect those cardboard round containers to make drums for the Indians. In my classroom, right around Thanksgiving. I mean Native Americans.
