Speaking of baking oatmeal, take 4 cups of oatmeal, 2 cups of brown sugar and 1 cup of oil, mix together well and let them sit all night.
The next day mix in 2 beaten eggs, 1/2 tsp of salt and 1 tsp of almond extract. Drop from a teaspoon onto a greased cookie sheet and bake for about 15 min at about 325-350 (whatever works best for your oven) and get the best oatmeal cookies ever (if you like macaroons)
