Easy Pumpkin cookies

Ok, here is the easiest recipe known to man for the yummiest cookies!

1 box spice cake mix
1 small can (or 1/2 a big can) pumpkin puree
Mix them together till all the cake mix is wet. Then add, pretty much whatever you want. I like raisins. The people in dinner group seemed to like the chocolate chip ones better. It's about a cup of mix-ins. You could add nuts too...
Anyway, put the cookies in plops on baking sheet. They don't rise much. Bake at 350* for about 20 minutes.
Then enjoy the deliciousness! (I ate 3 last night) And a few more today... But with the pumpkin and the raisins they're WHOLESOME! Right?

The Goddesses

Emily: My goal in life for as long as I can remember was to be a domestic goddess. I think I have arrived. I owe almost all of my domestic skills to my mother who taught me to cook, embroider, and sew. She trusted me in her kitchen and with her sewing machine and led by example. Rachel and I had fantastic domestic adventures when we were neighbors, and now, even 4+ years later, we're still at it!

Rachel: I didn't know what I wanted to be in life until I met Emily. We were neighbors and pretend roomies, and I knew it was meant to be. She put a name to the things I was already awesome at! I have always loved to cook, bake, sew, and scrapbook. I'm always up for trying new things and perfecting my skills.
