I think the peaches in CO actually come from the mountains believe it or not.

I need to hear about the Pedi Paws thing too. I have 3 cats. ‘Nuff said.

Interested to hear your thoughts on Pedipaws. My thoughts: Pedipaws=stupid, single-tasker, just buy a dremel! Or check out the tutorial I posted on how to stop being a weenie and just trim the nails with clippers: http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-trim-your-dog_s-toenails/ Not that you asked. Anyway, my real reason for commenting is to tell you that our family vacation last year (or was it the year before) was to stay at the Quaker Square Inn: http://www.quakersquareakron.com/ where they have fresh hot oatmeal cookies and serve you old-school oatmeal by the vat every morning! Oh, and did I mention the rooms are located in the old Quaker grain silos???!!!! We slept in a silo! I still don't understand the connection between Quaker and Lafayette. Is there a factory there? Or did they just contact the Quaker people to see f they could use the brand name?

Hey there! Long time reader, first time commenter :) I enjoy your posts about oatmeal…I recently decided to post a recipe for baked oatmeal on my site that I think you might like. It’s fast and easy and can be stored in the fridge for days! Don’t know if you’ve ever tried it, so thought I’d throw it out there :) Take care!

I love oatmeal with nuts on top. Adds a little protein and crunch.

@PastaQueen – It’s probably Oatmeal soap! I have a few bars, it’s great for exfoliating :D

Or maybe it’s oatmeal soap! I’ve heard of putting oatmeal in your bath, and scrubbing with it.

@lee (getting fit) – Oooooh! I bet you’re right. You are genius (or bombarded by Oatmeal propaganda). Thanks!

I lurve oatmeal. I’m about to make some…um. Too bad about the broken bowl. :(

The heart shaped soap was probably a symbol of oatmeal’s “heart healthy” properties.
