pass the cookies

Today is "Sugar Cookie Day," a fine day to celebrate in my opinion. and one that brings back sweet memories.  Many years ago, a friend and I, both in 8th grade I think, decided to do a demonstration together to earn some 4H credits. We chose baking sugar cookies as our demonstration,  All summer long we practiced baking sugar cookies, alternating home kitchens. They were delicious as I recall.  Big and puffy and soft and sweet.  Lucky for us, we had willing volunteers to taste test our product.  I had two younger brothers and my friend had one and they ate all we produced (with a little help from our parents).  I do not remember what color ribbon we received for our efforts but the families thought the project was a big success.  However, there can be too much of a good thing.  I haven't baked sugar cookies since.
