sometimes the best recipes are the ones we've used for years...


















Why mess with a good thing?  There's nothing better than biting into a cookie that reminds you of your childhood.  This recipe does that for me.  

Those cookies just came out of my oven!  Warm oatmeal raisin cookies on a beautiful fall day--how perfect is that??
