Found
Very old Skippy jar!
Someone had kept her cream of wheat in it (the recipe was taped to the jar).

He'll wear this, but he won't wear this awesome prize ribbon I made for him!
Hmm, maybe because white equals third place?

Granola
Why not make some?
Put your dry ingredients in a pot:
For example, rolled oats, sunflower seeds, and pumpkin seeds.
Stir and toast.
Add some honey! Also: maple syrup if you have some. Glug in some vegetable oil (you don't need that much).
Stir stir stir.
Looking good.
Now: put a thinnish layer of the mixture in a flat pan in a 350-degree oven.
Toast it until it just starts to get brown around the edges.
When it's all done, add some dried fruit. Stir. And...you got granola!
Easy and delicious. Do it!

Advice:
Don't try to crack your joints after you've had a few drinks.
You might just break your own toe.
Thank you.

MoMA store
I rarely ever buy anything there—there's never much that I want to own, even with the incentive of a 40–50% discount.
BUT! This fall:
American Modern Pitcher, designed in 1939 by Russel Wright. Isn't it awesome?
Cappello Hat, designed by Ron Arad, 2000. No doubt every design "connoisseur" in New York will be wearing it in the fall, but I like felt and I like this hat!
There you have it.
