Dick, you have made this old man's day, even if it is almost 9 PM here
on the west coast of Canada! My wife of 60 years was brought up by
Scottish grandparents and her mother, who although her mother was born
in Canada, was a Scot through and through. So, Marie was fed a diet of
oatmeal, in all of it's incarnations. Her mother had a recipe for
stuffing for chicken, turkey, spareribs, whatever, which we do now, and
is a 2nd cousin to haggis. Anywho, this stuff is great, and we do eat it
whenever the occasion arises. And Marie also puts oatmeal in her
loaves, and as she does the regular baking of bread and I do sourdough,
we have a pretty good variety of healthy bread at our house.
I am assuming that you meant the bonehead pinhead gourmets???
Cheers, old Doug on Vancouver Island BC

Doug, I'm so happy for you and your Bride of 60 years, you cradle robber!
Oatmeal stuffed chicken, as second cousin to Haggis, sounds very
interesting. I love Haggis, but haven't had any in a few years. I like the
taste and texture of steel-cut oats a lot better than Quaker Oats, although
the latter might make good cookies or work for stuffing a chicken. Does
your wife use the other Haggis ingredients in her chicken stuffing? Would
she email me her recipe?
