And now for something completely different..kind of
Well is does involve oats, so it's not all that different coming from
me. What is different is that instead of the microwave, I decided to use my homemade solar oven. A photo of one in the local newspaper inspired me, so I checked out some plans on the web, and made mine in about a hour. The oats have been cooking now for about an hour. I used steel cut oats with the same amount of water (cold) and put them in the solar oven. It's pretty hot and sunny in S. Central Texas today and 45 min. later the oats were moving about. When I just checked, they were actually boiling very slowly, so unless it clouds up, they should be ready to go in another hour or so. dkw |

Ultravoilet or whatever makes it through the clouds. Same deal as getting a sunburn on a cloudy day. |
