Flahavan’s Organic Oats Giveaway and a Better Breakfast:
This giveaway seems particularly appropriate during my War Time ration week as I am eating porridge for breakfast and flapjack for ‘dessert’. And I have to say I am rather enjoying both. While oats are a very economical way ingredient (and one that was never rationed during the war), they have a lovely nutty taste.
If you’d like the chance to win a whole selection of Flahavan’s organic oats and some rather fun goodies including an alarm clock, bamboo utensils and a branded apron then all you need to do is to tell me your favourite way to enjoy oats as a comment on this post, and then complete the rafflecopter for extra entries.
Why are Oats such a good idea? well,
Porridge has the highest protein content of all cereals.
It’s an idea food for slimmers – low in calories but filling.
Oats can help to stabilise blood sugars – reducing the risk of type II diabetes
Eating porridge helps the brain to produce serotonin. Serotonin is a brain transmitter that helps keep our spirits up and our appetites down. Levels of serotonin dip when sunlight is low – i.e. during the winter months and can frequently lead to Seasonal Affective Disorder.
So now, would YOU like to win one of three hampers each worth around £50? Just enter via the rafflecopter below, remembering to leave a comment on the blog first!

I love oatmeal for breakfast, especially during the winter. It warms you up while filling you up
I tolerate oatmeal with apples and cinnamon. Cheerios is my favorite cold cereal. I can even choke down a few oatmeal cookies (though more fond of chocolate chip). My wife recently purchased a 42 oz tub of the stuff. It will probably last until Armageddon. I couldn’t imagine “winning” more. ;o
Looks like I’ll have to start eating some more oatmeal in the mornings! Thanks for the reminder, Fiona!
