Chewy, nutty, fancy oatmeal cookies.
It seems Mom always wanted us to eat oatmeal… we wish she had had this recipe! These Fancy Oatmeal Cookies really hit the spot. I just love the taste of the oatmeal, the pecan and the coconut all mixed together.
I usually make a double batch because they have a tendency to go so quickly in my house! For example, the other day a good friend came over with their young daughter and I felt so happy that I had just made some of these cookies. As we talked and the little girl played, we realized that we had almost finished all the entire platter full!
I plan on making these for our next insidewink weekly meeting. Our meetings are so great and exciting because we inspire each other with new ideas for this site. All that thinking makes us hungry! Beside, some of us have a sweet tooth and these will be perfect.
Fancy Oatmeal Cookies

Now, the easy DIRECTIONS:
First, preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Then start by creaming together the Butter and the Brown Sugar.
Then add the Eggs and the Vanilla.
Mix together the Flour, Sugar, Baking Soda and Baking Powder. Once those are mixed together, add to other ingredients.
Finally, add the Oatmeal, the Pecans and the Coconut.
Mix everything, but don’t over mix.
Roll into small balls, dip each ball into a little dish of white sugar.
Bake for 12 min.

Living Unhoused for a Week: Ken Craft Takes to the Streets
Ken Craft of Hope of the Valley lives unhoused on the streets of the San Fernando Valley for 100 hours and shares the challenges, insights and struggles he faced on this journey.
I am a sixteen month survivor of an extremely rare and lethal cancer – anaplastic thyroid cancer. My medical oncologist says it is a “horrible” diagnosis. Five year survival rates are somewhere around seven percent. I have always loved statistics and found great comfort in numbers, loved math because there was never a question about the correct answers. With this cancer I have learned I am not a statistic. The numbers don’t matter. I am a unique individual with my own unique response to treatment. Today I am doing well. Today I can go out for breakfast with my husband, play with my dog and enjoy my life. I have today.
Your comment moved me deeply. Your grace, strength, wisdom, and courage are all
so incredibly inspiring. What a beautiful lady you are.
—-many loving prayers are with you and yours for always….
Dear Ina,
Thank you so much for sharing your truly wise insight here….I sincerely appreciate.
I am inspired.
Many Blessings to you always.
