Oatmeal Cookies

Hello Everyone! 

I guess I'll make my first post deceptive, by posting about cookies. With butter and sugar and all that heavenly goodness inside. In reality, most of my posts will probably be healthy stuff. I have not yet succeeded in the realm of healthy cookies, but these cookies have received rave reviews. 

I'll be honest, it's not my recipe, but I'm going to take credit for it because out of my selected taste-tester co-workers plus the Husband, everyone loved them. :) And it's all because of me.
