Oatmeal-Apple snack bars  :cheers:
Do I sense a theme of Oatmeal Apple?  Makes sense, I love Apple Cinnamon and oatmeal apple.  Last night I was even talking about needing to make Apple Cobbler using oatmeal soon.

When fresh apples are available I make muesli by soaking oatmeal in milk (and pinch of cinnamon) overnight, then adding shredded apple, sliced almonds, sunflower seeds, a few raisin or dried cherries, and shredded coconut in the morning. I love this stuff.   :tu:

That shouldn't stop you!  Join in!  It is not too late.

Storage day is 30 May.....so you've got 4 days to grab some grub and build your own GSMRE.   :tu:

What? You live on a U-boat?  :think:

Don't forget the sunflower seeds!  Seriously, the sunflower seeds make awl the difference. On occasion I forget them. After one bite and a brief chew.....*** dashes off to the pantry for sunflower seeds ***...I have to correct the situation. 

Sunflower seeds.

Obviously the grated apple is the most important part.....in addition to the pre-soak oatmeal. And the almonds. Those are awl crucial.

Along with the Sunflower seeds.

Don't listen to Mags. He mixes oats with salt, a 1/2 potion of water and calls it a Birthday Cake. You can do better.  :pok:

They are nice, although I do prefer Leksands crispbread myself, but they don't have individual sandwich packs like these.  :)

OK....some concerning unconfirmed reports to relate.

Fuzzy may not be able to complete this challenge.

Rumor has it that Fuzzy went slightly mad madder waiting for Jonuts and just binged on Jaffa cakes. He was taken to a modern hospital on the Isle of Arran for treatment of Insulin coma and other unnamed conditions. Local press is monitoring the situation. McVitie's was unavailable for comment. PSA's are expected shortly and the government has called for an inquiry.

Why has that 'nurse' got her mitts on Fuzzy's nether regions? Seems quite unorthodox treatment for a jaffa cake overdose

Arran medical staff are reportedly very thorough in their assessment and care. Nothing but the best for our Fuzzy.  :tu:

And to be correct, only the Snack Pots and the Apple-Cinnamon-Oatmeal Porridges need that hot water, the rest is edible as is :tu:
