A good day to bake cookies

Groundhog Day was gray and overcast and we did not see our shadows. I decided that it was a good day to bake some cookies so I looked in my recipe box and found a recipe for oatmeal cookies that I wrote when I was about twelve. I adjusted the recipe to use real butter and maple sugar. Result is that they are really good. Here is the modified recipe:

1/2 cup butter
1 cup maple sugar
1 large egg + 1T water
1 tsp. vanilla
3/4 cup flour
1/2 tsp. salt
3/4 tsp. Baking soda
2 cups oats
Handful of raisins and dried cranberries
Bake at 350 deg for 15 minutes.
