Oatmeal Cookies

Oatmeal raisin cookies have always been one of my favorite cookies but I've never tried to make them until recently. I'm so glad I did because these are SO tasty. I like them both plain and with raisins! You could also add nuts if that suits your fancy. I've added chocolate chips to these as well, but truthfully, plain and raisins are better in this recipe!
