Directions:
Combine the eggs, raisins and vanilla. Let stand for one hour, covered with plastic wrap - this is very important, it makes the raisins plump and juicy. In a separate bowl cream together butter and sugars. Add flour, salt, cinnamon and soda to sugar mixture. Mix well. Blend in egg-raisin mixture, oatmeal and chopped nuts. Dough will be stiff. Drop by heaping teaspoons onto ungreased cookie sheet, or roll into small balls and flatten slightly on cookie sheet. Bake at 350ºF for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned.
