Mr. Clean better retire.

He is no longer the hottest muscleman selling some sort of product. Yes, Mr. Clean's bald head glows brighter with jealousy when he gazes upon the glory of:

MY BOX OF OATMEAL.



Now, that's some hot cereal. Why yes, I select my breakfast brands based solely on whether or not I'd like to make out with the various guys in kilts heaving a shot put around on their boxes. Doesn't everyone?

Also, you can see my sweet little cafetiere, which keeps me in coffee each morning without breaking the "no heating elements in yer room" rule.

Sexy oats + coffee = blissful morning.

So, uh...

...how do you heat the water for the French press without a heating element of some sort?

I mean, I'm just wondering.

(Also, are those proper steel-cut oats? Because I'm not sure I can tolerate my name appearing on anything less.)

What I do is boil water in a pot on the stove in the kitchen. But then I am free to take the little pot to my room and slowly enjoy indulgent amounts of coffee over emails and/or class readings. Ahhhh. It sits on those little metal feet so I'm not just setting a hot carafe on my desk (which I'm pretty sure would leave a mark) and doesn't necessitate having the cofee maker unit w/ warmer in the actual room. Was a lot cheaper too, so that's nice. :)

As for the oats, I looked on the box but couldn't see anything about steel cut. They are rolled oats, and Scottish milled, and uh, there's a lovely recipe for some cookies, which they are calling cookies instead of biscuits.

Maybe Scott is the shot put guy's name too. ;)

I guess that's the adult version of choosing your cereals according to the toy.
