I have always loved Farina. Nice bowls of steaming hot cereal sprinkled with brown sugar and topped with creamy milk. Reminds me of winter mornings in my childhood. This year I finally realized that you don't have to buy the boxes of Farina (or Cream of Wheat) you can make it from freshly ground flour!
I found this recipe in More-With-Less cookbook (It's a great cookbook)
Ground Wheat Breakfast Cereal
Bring to a boil
3 cups Water
Combine seperately and add:
1 cup cold water
1 cup ground wheat
2 tsp salt
Stir constantly while thickening to prevent lumps. Heat and cook 15-20 min. Serve with milk and sugar, honey or molasses.

But I love the lumps. So I boil all the water, add the salt and then add the ground wheat and I minimally stir. So good. Today I am having it with brown sugar, blueberries, a handful of almonds and milk. Yum!
Ps. I couldn't find my camera so no pictures today :(
