...Commissary is an arty cafeteria with decent, moderately priced choices. Breakfast may include crackling thick Irish oatmeal or homemade muffins, and at brunch and lunch there are well-made omelets. Probably Philadelphia's most widely acclaimed French restaurant is Le Bec-Fin. Although not quite up to its national reputation, it does offer some fine food -- at steep prices -- in a dated Louis-the-Something setting. Avoid complex dishes such as lamb wrapped in veal and heavily sauteed scallops with snow peas. More successful are the Cornish hen with a garlic-and-thyme cream sauce, and veal medallions nestling...
That much oatmeal between glossy red-white-and-blue covers made the party's surviving left wing gag.

Klein spent years "living out of a car in soaking wet clothes, eating gritty oatmeal." Her life is somewhat more conventional now; she is married to J.T. Kearney, a phys-ed professor at the University of Kentucky, who took a sabbatical to train for the men's kayak team, failed to win a place, and volunteered to be the women's team manager...
...behind the ballot box or lollipops in front of it. Trudeau was the sweetest of candidates, a perennial choice but a bit of a Catch-22. Fifteen years brought few political alternatives. Conservative leaders Robert Stanfield and Joe Clark were no match; what are molasses and oatmeal compared to the Jesuit-trained, Bhagavad-Gita believing wooer of Margaret, flower child and Rolling Stone groupie...
