    2       ts           Water
    1 1/2   c            Oatmeal
    1       t            Ginger, powder
      1/4   lb           Butter, unsalted
      1/3   c            Sugar, brown, dark
      1/4   ts           Baking soda
 
     Cream the butter; add the sugar and beat until light
   and fluffy. Dissolve the baking soda in the water and
   add, stirring well. Add the oatmeal and ginger, mixing
   well. The mixture should be fairly firm. If necessary,
   add a little more oatmeal. Knead lightly on a floured
   surface. Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Press the
   mixture in a buttered baking dish, about 8 x 12
   inches. The dough should be about 1/2 inch thick. Bake
   in the 300 degree oven for 35 minutes, or until brown
   on top. Cut into squares while hot.
