Porridge Hot

Description

I could say that this recipe was handed down from my great-great-great-great-grandmother, but that isn't the case! I can't say I've every had it, but still....... Taking some suggestions to heart, I've cut back on the original 1/4 cup of molasses, & finally made it optional, realizing that some people [for some reason or other!] just don't have my taste for molasses!
