Granola recipe

[DavidDvorkin]

Yes, that's exactly what it is: http://www.dvorkin.com/rec/granola.html

I've written various things in my life, but as far as I can remember, that's the first time I've written a receipe in a form others can use. It was fun. I may do more.

1. Yummers!

David's Granola sounds like a delicious recipe. I printed it out and am going to make it today. Till I read the recipe, I didn't know I was craving the stuff. Yum!

Snip:

How much does this make? Lots. Oodles. Vast quantities. I suppose you really want to know. Let's see. We should be able to calculate it quite precisely from the list of ingredients. Add up all the cups. Ignore the vanilla extract. Multiply number of cups by 8 to convert to ounces. Add, um, 17.2% for the air spaces around the granola clumps. Subtract 1% for the cook's nibbling on the nuts. Finally, multiply by the conversion factor for converting ounces to chunks. And the result is . . . Wow! That's a lotta chunks! I told you so.

This granola will not only make you healthier. It will also cause you to dress casually, worry about the environment, oppose immoral wars, and vote for liberal/leftwing candidates. That's why you should eat lots of it.

heh heh, brilliant, DavidD! :thumbsup:

3. Thanks. I couldnt resist getting political.

The fascist swine know that everything's political, and it's time for our side to realize that, too.

2. Suggested modification

The link to this was published on Bartcop Entertainment, and one of her readers e-mailed to suggest adding some maple syrup. That really sounds delicious, and I'm going to try it next time.

4. Maybe

some people would like the added taste of maple, but I don't care much for maple-flavored oatmeal, so I don't think I'd like it in your granola recipe either. Besides, it's scrumptious just the way it is. I made a batch and my hubby loved it also. His mom came over to visit yesterday, and she did too, so I printed the recipe for her as well.

We got a chuckle out of how you were able to work a political statement into the recipe. Well done!
