Easy Chocolate Chip Cookies

Heat oven to 375 degrees. Mix sugar, oil, vanilla and egg in large bowl until smooth. Stir in flour, soda and salt. Divide dough in half. Press out in strips on lightly greased cookie sheets. Sprinkle with chips and nuts. Press lightly. Bake until golden, about 7 to 9 minutes. Cut into strips.

**Note** I made a double batch and didn't use nuts. They are super yummy! =)

Book Club

Well i joined this book club. It meets once a month. This was our first book. I do love to read and can get quite lost in a book but with my busy schedule this last month and all my other things I am involved with I just didn't get the book read. I go tonight to the meeting and I have no clue what the book is about and I know I won't have time to read any of it. In my defense I really did try to read it, I got as far as Chapter 1. If anyone has read this and would like to give me some "notes" I would appreciate it! The life of a mom is always busy that is for sure!! :)
