an ode to porridge


I had a dreadful porridge experience on Monday. 
I was hanging out for some oaty goodness, a few plump sultanas and a splash of creamy milk but with the first mouthful I new something was definitely wrong. 
Bitter and burning- and I don't mean the temperature.
If you've ever experienced eating rancid stale pasta you'll know what I mean...... arrrgggghhhh!
How is it that the organic oats I bought 3 weeks ago from the health food shop are OFF?
Damn them!
This morning, though, I tried again. Yes! Perfect porridge. 
Welsh blankets, angora gloves, porridge..... but where is our real winter?
