Foodie fun for this day targets the sweet tooth and is filled with nutritional goodness! Main ingredient...oatmeal, which is truly beneficial for reducing cholesterol and maintaining a healthy heart. The combination of slow-burning carbs and fiber found in oats is a great fuel source for breakfast. Not into the full meal deal for breakfast...grab a few cookies along with a cold glass of milk! Yum!

March 18 is...

National Lacy Oatmeal Cookie Day

Florentine cookies: a crispy, lacy oatmeal cookie sandwich filled with milk chocolate

Oatmeal cookies are so darn delicious two days of celebration have been declared: National Lacy Oatmeal Cookie Day (March 18) and National Oatmeal Cookie Day (April 30). March 18 is the day when the old-fashioned, traditional oatmeal cookie gets skinny, thus, the relationship to being lacy is acquired because of the cookie's thinness. Oatmeal Lace Cookies are delicate, chewy, crisp, almost “toffee-ish” in flavor, and addictive. You will fall in love with these cookies.
