Oatmeal Dried Fruit Cookies
These are the best oatmeal cookies I've ever had! Very buttery and very hearty. Any dried fruit works well such as cherries, raisins, cranberries, blueberries, or chopped apricots. For a really decadent treat, use chocolate chips and nuts instead of fruit.
Perfect Deviled Eggs
These deviled eggs made with Worcestershire sauce and horseradish appeared on the table at every holiday and other gathering when I was growing up. My children will stand in front of the refrigerator and eat one after another — if I don't catch them! You can spice these up with Creole-style or country mustard, a few dashes (or more!) of hot sauce, and a sprig of parsley. They're just pretty!
