Drizzle, Drawing and Cookies!

No photo from yesterday. I am really grumpy about my camera quality. How do I keep breaking CF
cards? Sigh... Breaking out some watercolor pencils is much more fun for me this way. If I should 
want a crummy, grainy picture, I should just draw it instead! Except trying to do plaid; it is very 
difficult for the novice. The weather was miserable, but I was cozy in some knit tights, hat and 
boots. Bring it on, Winter!


Since it was requested, here is the yummy recipe I used to make Butterscotch-Chip Oatmeal Raisin 
cookies last week. Experiment with the added goodies (do coconuts and raisins go together?) and 
try making a half-batch, since you'll probably eat them all the first day ;)

Oatmeal Raisin Chip Cookie Recipe
(yields about three dozen)

  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cup flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 3 cups rolled oats
  • 1/2 to 1 cup raisins
  • 1/2 to 1 cup chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, white chocolate, M&M's, etc.

♥ Pre-heat oven to 350°
♥ Mix the first 5 ingredients listed in a big bowl. Separately mix together the next 3 ingredients, then stir the dry mixture into the moist mixture.
♥ Stir in the oats, raisins, and other goodies. Drop by teaspoonful onto ungreased cookie sheet.
♥ Bake 9 to 11 minutes; let cool 2 minutes before removing from pan
