Cookies for Q!

The other night as I was tucking my son into bed, he asked "can we bake cookies tomorrow"? Thought it was adorable, so sure enough after breakfast we got to baking. I told him that he could make any kind of cookie he wanted. So he picked chocolate chip, since of course I was out of chocolate chips. So we had some hershey bars in the pantry so we just broke those up and added them to some oatmeal cookies. He was so happy to bake his cookies and his dino, Boris wanted in on the cookie eating fun too!
