Fact: I am a hard-core, over-the-top, obsessive, lover of Oatmeal Raisin Cookies. It’s kind of a crazy statement to make about what is, to most people, the red-headed step child of the cookie world, but I can’t even help it. Maybe it’s because the oatmeal and the raisins combine to make me think I’m actually
