Oatmeal Cookies

(0)
"You might be wondering what I mean by kitchen sink. Ever hear the phrase, everything but the kitchen sink? That's kind of how I feel about these babies. Sometimes, our greatest creations come out of a need. At a wellness event last week, I was happy with how my brownies looked (everything needs to look cute, ya know what I mean?) So I decided I wanted to whip up some oatmeal cookies to bring too, with whatever I could find in my pantry. The outcome? Husband approved cookies from heaven. You're welcome in advance."
