Orange Flavoured Chocolate Chip Cookies

My friend made these years ago and they are superb!  Mix together 1 cup of margarine, 1 cup of brown sugar, 1 cup of white sugar.  In a separate bowl mix together 2 eggs and 1 tsp. of vanilla.  Then mix up the following ingredients together with these ingredients:  In a big bowl add 3 cups of quick oatmeal, 2 cups of flour, 1 tsp. of salt, 1 tsp. of baking soda, and grate the rind of 1 orange and add, as well add one chopped up orange, remember to remove the seeds, then 2 cups of chocolate chips.  Mix up and then drop on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes - depending on your stove at 350 degrees.
