I like a bowl of porridge in the morning. Warm, filling, cheap. It's all good.
There are perhaps many schools of thought as to how porridge
should taste. When studying for Inter cert Irish (I am that old), "Leite Donncha
Pheig" was one of the stories I learnt (and indeed the only one I actually
remember). I recall it dealt with matrimonial disharmony arising out of a
difference in taste for porridge between salty and sweet. I don’t put salt into
my porridge but I like to sprinkle it with sugar, brown if I’m treating myself.
While I’m at it, I love to pour a little cream over my porridge too. Not every
day.
