Day 16: Lucky number 16

by casscomerford • November 16th, 2009 • posted in Life List, NaBloPoMo

For the 16th commenter on my blog from last Friday it’s going to be a nicer Monday.  That person is <drum roll please>  Nicola Bradburn Fuller!  Congrats Nicola!

November 16th: Make my own granola

I’m kind of expecting the worst from today.  It’s going to be really un-fun and because of this I am going to make a special effort to do something that will make me happy – something that will make me feel accomplished at the end of the day even though the day was full of really un-fun things.  So tonight I’m going to make my own granola.  I love granola.

These are the recipes I’m thinking about:

Jamie Olivers Mom’s Granola

Martha Stewart’s Granola

Ellie Krieger’s Granola

Alton Brown’s Granola

Mark Bittman’s Granola

Right now I’m leaning towards Mark’s because I’m generally a fan of all the recipes I’ve ever used of his….do you have a granola recipe that you turn to?  I’d love a recommendation.

    All I know is I now want granola, so thanks for that.

    Thanks, Cass! I am sooo excited. You have made my day. Now, I am hungry for granola (store-bought)with vanilla yogurt, but I am now inspired to make my own.

    Thx for posting this! I too have intended to make my own granola for a long, long time, but I just never do! I'll have to check out the links you posted. My co-blogger posted a recipe that she uses awhile back: http://ifshesaidso.wordpress.com/2009/06/24/what-do-you-feed-a-12-marathoner/

    I've been thinking about this lately so if you make one and it is great, let us know!
