Red and Rover by Brian Basset for January 06, 2022

Ya know that’s close to pet- & child-abuse, lady!

Oatmeal, the grey lumpy food of hell.

Aye, good ol’ porrage! That’ll put hairs on yer chest!

In my opinion, Cream Of Wheat (not the instant version) or Malt-O-Meal is much better, especially when made using a water & milk combination with some sugar & a bit of butter added. Even better with some of a liked fruit added. Of course what Red is requesting is even more yummy (if prepared & cooked correctly/properly). I am glad I learned how to cook during my childhood & in turn was not always at the mercy of what my parents felt like making &/or were serving for particular meals. At least they were good cooks, I just did not like particular foods.

So much for Rover’s compliments to the chef!

" I don’t mind" ! Of course not, my Rugby always wags his tail after he TOOTS. Ha

Better than Cream of Wheat®

Used to love me my oat meal, also my creamy wheat

Must be that Eggos weren’t invented yet.

Yuk. Oatmeal. I know it is heart healthy, but lots of carbs too. And I wind up hungry an hour later.

Aw, come on mom, make a few strips of bacon for Rover.

But what about Rover!

Oatmeal – That’s a disappointment

You know, I don’t think I’ve ever had oatmeal in my life. Perhaps I should thank my parents.

Now they both eat oatmeal!!

Yum!

Nice try, but you can’t fool Mom.
