Sigs and Stones Can Break Your Bones. . . .

The recipe is easy to put together, even for an inexperienced baker. It's got lots of oatmeal and is fairly low in sugar, a delicious, filling treat with a cup of coffee or a glass or milk for the small ones. If you don't have buttermilk, simply add a couple teaspoons of vinegar or lemon juice to your milk and let sit 15 minutes first.
