I do most of the cooking around our house. Not because my wifOatmeal Cookies by Mike Saunderse is a bad cook, but, mostly because I enjoy cooking and I am actually a very good cook. Luckily, my wife does most of the cleaning because I am not very good at that (all those years of Navy getting ready for inspections in the Navy were forgotten the day I got out).

Well, one of the things that I don't do is desert. If we are going to have any kind of desert it either comes from a can, the bakery or a restaurant. But one thing Nancy does well is dessert. Last night, she decided we hadn't had oatmeal raisin cookies in too long. She was right!

So this week, along with being thankful for my bride, I am thankful for that adventurous and creative person that figured out those little dry flakes could be made into such a delicious treat! Do you think it was that Quaker guy on the box?

Mike, I have a Beagle that eats oatmeal with me in the morning. Oatmeal works for almost everything.

Mike, oatmeal raisin cookies are my all time favorite.  Week 20 is a good one when it has cookies!

And all this time I was thinking that oatmeal was good for facials, sorta like cucumber slices on the eyes.

I too love them oatmeal raisin cookies.

Carole - it can be a bit like eating paste, you just need to flavor it up a little, or be creative with how you use it.
