gluten-free oatmeal chocolate chip cookies.

i was given the task of bringing a dessert to a baby shower thrown by the darling bethany tomorrow.
so i spent my evening baking, of course. 
i used up some ingredients i had just hanging around the house to make one of my favorite cookies:
gluten-free oatmeal chocolate-chip cookies.
these little fellas are so chewy and don't even taste gluten-free... i promise!
