Farina Pudding with Berries image

As a child my Aunt made this favorite dessert for me but when I married and had kids who wouldn't eat hot cereals but loved this, I made it as a warm winter breakfast. Now my grandkids and great grandkids love it also. The ingredients are interchangeable with lower fat, almond or lactose free milk and less or substitute sugar...
