Preheat oven to 350º. Grease and flour 9 x 13 inch pan. In a bowl, mix the boiling water and oats; set aside to cool. In another bowl, sift flour, salt, baking soda, nutmeg and cinnamon and set aside. In a large bowl, with electric mixer, cream the butter and sugars until light and fluffy, then add eggs one at a time, mixing well. Stir in vanilla. On low, add flour mixture to butter mixture, scraping down sides and bottom of bowl. Mix until all ingredients are incorporated, but do not over mix. Stir in oatmeal.
