June 3, 2008 by evelyn

An hour before my friend Christine was coming over to make Cherry Almond Granola for our Breakfast Foods swap, I was really excited. I still hadn’t really heard about her trip to Spain and Morocco, we needed to talk about planning an auction later this month for a local hospital, and just needed to catch up on our lives.

Because we were making the granola in bulk, we multiplied everything by five. I set out five big bowls, one each for Christine, me, her daughter and my two daughters, and put a spoon in each.
