SC - Oat Groats (and stressing out)

[Bonne of Traquair]

While shopping on the bulk foods aisle at Whole Foods today, I came across 
"Oat Groats" on sale for 99-cents a pound.  I didn't even know I wanted 
these, until I saw them. They'd probably be more correct than rolled oats in 
the various oat frumenty type recipes in the Markham and Digby books I am 
currently studying. Am I right about this?

What other oat recipes are around? Oatcakes?  Surely I can fit this into the 
Celtic side of my feast next spring. Wonder how much of this I should stock 
up on while it's on sale? somebody posted a sort of oat "pilaf" a while 
back, didn't they? Let me just wander off to the Florilegium now . . .

What's that, I promised to do the Windlore cover this month and it's due on 
Friday?  And I've already missed a day and a half of work this week being 
sick or being mother to sick people?  And the payroll office has bumped up 
all of the deadlines from next Monday to this Friday because of the two day 
holiday next week?

Oh, alright, playing with my food will just have to wait until Thanksgiving.

Bonne
(not having a good week, except for finding the oat groats)
(wonder if Manus would accept a short but nicely calligraphed recipe as a 
cover illustration?)
