Workout then Cook!

Over the years, I've collected dozens of cook books but I keep coming back to my trusty Mrs Fields Cookie Book (which was given to me by my mother-in-law 6 years ago, thanks Priscilla!). Tonight, I made the Applesauce Oatmeal Raisin Cookies and they came out amazingly moist and yummy!

1-3/4 c quick oats
1-1/2 all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
