Easier for my husband to take to work, for lunch, and great to freeze, and take out one at a time to heat up. DELICIOUS!! Loved this recipe! Flavorful, moist, and I loved using the oats instead of bread crumbs, for more fiber. Thanks for sharing it!Isahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09492922395280249275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7627911066190076772.post-15802664591508997152011-03-22T01:14:34.082-04:002011-03-22T01:14:34.082-04:00Cool Cake, I approve whole heartedlyCool Cake, I approve whole heartedlyAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15629039640383215003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7627911066190076772.post-75337396204029747762011-03-19T20:43:41.049-04:002011-03-19T20:43:41.049-04:00lmao your kids rock!

I'm glad that FlyLady's working for you.<br /><br />To avoid the FlyLady emails becoming clutter in my Inbox, I changed my settings to a "Daily Digest" so I get each day's worth of emails in one big email, with a hyperlink table of contents at the top.
