Today, I did laundry and watched some Jesus/Christmas stuff on TV. Nothing too fancy. I should water my plants while I'm still thinking about it. Oh! And I have a new battery to put in my car. Dammit, now I gotta get up off my butt and do that shit.

I worked, woo...

Some family came over and exchanged some gifts. Then completed and sighed at how easy Assasins creed was.

I made a bunch of cookies and now I'm going to ice them.

I worked, woo...

I made this oatmeal cake like thing, but I eated it, well some of it.

was it good?

Was it? I never heard of oatmeal cakes before? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

It wasn't much different than making a bowl of oatmeal really, but you bake it for about an hour. I guess it's more like a pudding, think english style, not the custardy stuff we call pudding. Think bread pudding with oatmeal instead of bread.

It tasted like a bowl of oatmeal with raisns, cinnamon, and brown sugar.

Sounds good.

I can give the recipe if people want, it's very simple. It'll have wait until morning/afternoon though.

No prob. I'm still waiting on some Scampi recipe as well actually...

I fixed a wire in a brad, and changed out a heater in another. Now im on gaurd. (internet gaurd)

So far took the wife to work and cleaned the apartment up a bit, still have a few things to do before evening hits and the family gets together tonight ><

The day hasan't started for me yet.

Uhhhh - Sat and watched anime all day. Then going to get pissed later and ready myself for the evil day.

Going to make my famous Haystacks!

Ah haystacks, oat delights, mudpies, are there any other names? Today I'm just helping to make pies. I'm sort of the mixer around here. Any job most would use a hand or stand mixer for is me with a fork or whisk here.

And now the recipe:

2 1/4 cups Quick cooking rolled oats
3/4 cup Packed brown sugar
3/4 cup Raisins
1 tsp Cinnamon
1/2 tsp Salt
3 1/2 cups Milk
2 Eggs
1 tbsp Vegetable oil
1 tsp Vanilla

In large bowl, stir together oats, sugar, raisins, cinnamon, and salt. In separate bowl, whisk together milk, eggs, oil, and vanilla; pour into oat mixture, stirring to combine. Pour into greased 8 inch square baking dish; bake in centre of 350F oven for 50 to 60 minutes or until centre is set and firm. cut into 8 rectangles. Serve warm.

It's good with a little syrup on it and could almost be eaten for breakfast if you really want to. If you try making it you'll find that the mixture is very watery and all the oats and stuff has sunk to the bottom. Don't worry, it's supposed to be like that, just make sure to level out the oats in the bottom of the pan, It will set up nice and solid and quite dense.

I wonder if I should mention my mother's delicious mayonnaise cake. It's a chocolate cake and if it sounds weird, it isn't. A lot of cakes contain oil and eggs, and mayonnaise is basically oil and eggs.
