1 c. shortening
1 c. white sugar

1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. soda
2 c. flour
2 c. quick cooking oats

These cookies could have been called just plain Oatmeal Cookies but I like this name better. It suggests that there is some one special in my life and that I delight in pleasing him. Real home cooking is a happy combination of culinary ability, understanding and love.
