Ever since I could remember our favorite breakfast was a hot
cereal that my parents called "kasha." In Polish it means oats.
It is what many people refer to as oatmeal made from Mother's Oats.
Often people make it with sugar added to it, but we like it best
with a little salt, butter, milk and a creamy consistency. My
mother can make it pretty good, but since my father has been
retired he has perfected the best recipe for "kasha," which is now
our family's secret recipe.
