Grandma June's Oatmeal Patties

This is an old recipe that I'm pretty sure my mother (June Perg Floyd) invented. Happy Mother's Day, mom!

[Grandma June's]
Oatmeal Patties

1 cup uncooked oats
1 cup crumbs (bread or cracker or another cup of oats)
1 cup milk
2 Tablespoons soysauce
1 tsp salt
Garlic
Beat 2 eggs; add milk & soy-sauce
mix and let sit a few minutes to soak up a little of 
liquid.
  Drop by spoonful into hot 
greased skillet. Can serve with 
gravy or a can of mushroom or tomato soup

I will reformat this - the above is as close a representation as I can get of whats on the stained warped old 3x5 card I have sitting on the laptop ;)

And as a reminder, this recipe is only one of those that may be found in the forthcoming earth food’s serial cooking for humans,

[and a couple final notes from my personal experience: use peanut, corn, 
or olive oil to cook them in - or walnut oil, if you can get it; also,
(speaking of nuts) chopped pecans go great in this, iirc]

High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS)

[this message is a cross-posting, some or all of the content is duplicated at http://blogs.earthside.org/earth_tech/2007/07/high-fructose-corn-syrup.html on the earth_tech blog] We've been hearing that "high fructose corn syrup is not good for you" for a couple years now, but up until now it has just been something to avoid if possible (i.e. choose the brands that don't have it in the ingredient list if and when an alternative is available, pass up certain "SALE" items because they contain it, etc), but - at least up until this point, no evidence concerning HFCS has been presented (to me), and no critical warnings have been raised about its use in human food products. Today while moderating a discussion at slashdot.org entitled PubPat Kills Four Key Monsanto Patents , I ran across a post ( #19982005 by an "anonymous" author) which - while substantially directed at the issue of genetically modified (GM) crops, mentions some of the reputed [a...

metric quantification weirdness

Metric measurements are nice, IMO - they allow me to use nice counting numbers that and up neatly. Most of the time. Here's a bit of weirdness that works in spite of the cross-system measurements: My [current] Recipe for Rice 1 pound of white rice 1 liter of potable water The above measurements, if combined in a pot, brought to a boil, then covered and cooked over the lowest possible fire for exactly 20 minutes will produce enough cocked white rice for 3 people for one day. Earth Time.
