Iced Oatmeal Cookies

My day was CRAZED... how about yours?
Best part of my day?
Carrying around a platter of cookies to my busy morning of meetings and sharing these cookies. It's amazing how happy a little ole cookie will make people.
Spread some love, bake these.

I found this recipe off of a very, very cute blog called Mother Thyme
This is her recipe, and I wholeheartedly approve.  I do have to say though, her cookies look way nicer than mine!
