Personal Notes:
This is my favorite Oatmeal Cookie! I generally dislike raisins cooked into anything, but with thisd cookie, they taste amazing!
For a long time, I thought this recipe was from my Grandma Hazel's mother, but I later learned from my mom that it was Grandpa Andy's mother's recipe...a family recipe from Scotland.
