Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Nut Cookies

I wanted to cheer up my husband after his favorite team lost on the road to the NCAA championship. Cookies seem to do the trick, I pulled out a few of our family favorites and couldn’t decide which I wanted; the oatmeal variety or standard tollhouse variety. In the end I mixed and matched the recipes, the cookies were good and put a smile on his face.
