Okay, what did I do wrong? I put about half a cup of the whole grain flaxseed in my mini food processor to grind it.

I turned it on, it worked perfectly, ONLY IT DIDN'T GRIND ANYTHING.

I tried again.

It's still whole.

What happened? do I need a special grinder for this?

And after I figure out how to grind it, how much should I put in Alan's oatmeal?

A teaspoon full?

thanks much
P.S. I feel like a complete idiot. I'm trying to grind this stuff and nothing is happening. lol
