  1. Crazy story; I followed the first half thing this was oatmeal cookies pecan bar 😆😩. I made half into cookies Then used half the cookie mixture as a bottom crust replacement and made the pecan topping . We’ll see what happens 😬

  3. Love watching you guys together. We don’t like overly sweet desserts. But still enjoy a snack at the end of the day or with coffee. How much sugar can I decrease without compromising flavor and the ratios too much.

  4. I'm going to have to make both of these. But so I don't eat them all completely I'll probably wait till I go to therapy group, using a teaching moment. I used to be a baker, cake decorator all kinds of stuff but now due to muscle and nerve damage and a list of other stuff I got told I would never be able to go back to my field, broke my heart crushed my soul💔😱😵 but I recently got told by my case manager that I could teach some of the other clients some baking and since all of the clients that go to the clubhouse which is a Therapy Group but we try to perform some normal day tasks, some things as simple as doing dishes are hard for us with me I can get away with dishes as long as I can stick them in the dishwasher but once I have to stand at the sink in one place it causes my ankle my knee and my hip to flare up. So it's nice being able to bake at the clubhouse because then somebody else is willing to help with the dishes in return to eat goodies. I guess trigger warning for the rest, Along with my physical stuff I've also got severe PTSD and some issues that come along with that, one of the things for Clubhouse for me is try to get me normalized to people again because my ex kept me locked up and I survived 12 years of DV but then was assaulted by my ex brother-in-law family reunion of sorts so I've also got severe trust issues on top of everything. I would love to be able to teach but unfortunately due to head trauma I can't recall a lot of information I had memorized. I could be talking normal one minute, then completely forgot what I was talking about the next which makes it really hard when having to deal with paperwork and applications and trying to teach somebody something when you can't even remember what the heck you said

  5. We love oatmeal cookies in our household. I have a friend that likes oatmeal hates raisins so I make hers with dried cherries, also works great with dried apples when you can find them now I just see the freeze dried apples everywhere but I want my chewy dried apples. I also have a recipe from I think it's Land O'Lakes for pumpkin oatmeal cookies and they call for the raisins but I've also added dried cranberries in. If you don't want fruit we'll also do chocolate chips sometimes. But will this cookie recipe work for a certain oatmeal sandwich, if so can you provide a cream filling recipe😏 I'm asking for a friend

  6. When I was ~7, I came home from school and found some lady in our kitchen. This was OK with me, because she was making oatmeal cookies. But I went to find my mother anyway and I found her in her closet organizing shoes (or something). She brought me back to the kitchen and introduced me to the lady, but I was not paying attention because the cookies were coming out of the oven. It was not until years later that I tumbled to the fact that this lady was Rosa Parks, who was in our city to give a lecture and stayed with us as a "safehouse." She made the best oatmeal cookies!
