Personal Notes:
My mother-in-law has been making these cookies for nearly 45 years. Martin & Bradley always knew she would have oatmeal cookies every time they went to stay with her. Now when Lucas, Dekker, Caleb & Austin visit they too get some oatmeal cookies. And it won't be long until Hagan will be wanting one when he visits. She has been a wonderful cook all her life.
