I thought my pot of rice would last longer. Oh well, guess I will get the rice cooker out and try a RiceSelect brand of rice blend ( brown rice, red rice, pearled barley, and rye berries). Even though this company is located in Alvin, TX , I found it on Amazon, and cannot locate it locally. They have other blends (some with wheat berries).

Haven't posted to a what's cookin' thread in a long time but it seems like a good thing to do. I"ve been caught up in a 'no time to cook, let's eat out' cycle for too long so maybe if I get back to planning meals I'll stop that!
