The Best Oatmeal Porridge on Earth

This is a recipe that provoked the following praise. This is so good Spencer, I would have married you just for this, Well, this and your car.

The Best Oatmeal Porridge on Earth
Serves 2
1 c. old fashioned rolled oats (not instant nor quick)
1 c. 2% milk
1 c. water
1 handful (not to exceed 1/4 cup I'd guess) raisins

Add everything to a sauce pan, cook over medium heat until it begins to boil, stir well and serve.

At the table a selection of jams and jellies, brown sugar, cinnamon, honey, fresh fruit, (peaches and blueberries mmmmmm!!) will be the perfect compliment.

Variations we've tried: In addition to the raisins we have also added each item on this list to the oats as they are cooking: dried apples, grated fresh apples, and craisins.
