Oatmeal Cookies

These cookies come out more like muffins (light and flecked with spices) instead of the dense oatmeal cookies you normally see. But they are very good. These are the famous Grandma Grimm cookies. If you ever want to make Jeremy's day, bake him these and chocolate chip cookies without the chocolate chips. 2 eggs 1 cup sugar 1 cup butter or lard 1 tsp ground cloves 1 tsp ground cinnamon 1 cup sour milk 1 tsp soda (level) 1 tbs baking powder 2 cups oatmeal (quick) 1 cup raisins 2 cups flour walnuts (your preference)

Mix all ingredients and drop by spoonfuls onto an ungreased cookie sheet.

Bake @ 400 degrees for 8-10 minutes
