When I was growing up my mom taught me how to bake. One of the many things that she taught me to bake is my dad's favorite oatmeal cookies. Once we moved to Texas I wasn't able to find the recipe and my mom had misplaced it as well. Then I finally found it! I had to make them. So with the help of my youngest daughter, Natily, these cookies were made.
