Drops O' Oatmeal Raisin Goodness

Whaddya' know? It looks like the banana muffin episode acted as an impetus for more hidden bakers to come out of the woodwork. Soeur got motivated and decided to try her hand at her first very own batch of homemade oatmeal cookies. I felt a nervous breakdown coming when she remarked that the vanilla extract smelled like cough syrup, but once we took care of that minor setback, she produced these lovelies for dessert tonight after dinner chez Nancy. Soeur thought the recipe needed more sugar, but I liked it as the recipe called. It sounds like next time chocolate chips may enter the picture. Sure, why not? Keep up the baking, I say. I dig the way it makes your home smell so exceptionally loverly.
