Making Oatmeal Choco Chip Cookies with Nick

If I have chocolate chips in the freezer, then I can think of nothing else but to make cookies. Knowing that I'd end up eating all of them myself, I tried to make them a little bit healthy by making them oatmeal choco chip cookies.
Nick was a great helper. Especially when I looked back to see he was making a huge mess with the flour. I could have gotten upset, yelled at him and made him get off the counter, but instead I decided to just let him continue to play and chalk it up as me being a great mom!
The cookies end up not being very good, I think I only had 10...




Here is the easy receipe if you're interested:

1 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar

1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
3 cups quick-cooking oats
1 cup chopped walnuts
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
