Samuel Johnson's 1755 dictionary defined oats as "A grain, which in England is generally given to horses, but in Scotland appears to support the people." The Scotsman's retort to this was, "That's why England has such good horses, and Scotland has such fine men!"
Oats are a healthy addition to just about any diet because they provide fiber, satiety, and help lower cholesterol. If you're not already doing so, why not give oatmeal a try? On a chilly morning, go ahead and cook a steaming bowl of this good stuff. Add toppings, like cinnamon, walnuts, and dried cranberries. It's as warm and comforting as it is healthy.

Christine, this one surely does NOT go against my grain! LOL I love the droop of the grain pods, and I truly loved reading your description, as it is very educational, even though I may know a bit about grains, you gave me a whole new perspective of the meaning! Love this shot, and you got my fave and vote on this great shot, but also your superlative description. Thanks for sharing!
