I am not a cook. In fact, until a month ago, I was a lawyer (no offense to anyone who is a good cook and an attorney). Needless to say, we had not made sugar cookies from scratch since the kids were itty bitty, and we had the help of one of our wonderful nannies.
So this week, I sifted flour and powdered sugar for the first time, and we attempted to make sugar cookies. I got the recipe from my cousin who is a fabulous cook. When I was mixing up the ingredients, Sam came into the kitchen and said "What in the world is that?" which was kind of funny and kind of sad.
Like all big projects (and for me, sugar cookies definitely counts), we broke the process up into small pieces. We made the dough on Sunday and cut out the cookies yesterday. Today, we will ice them with my sister's family when they get here.
Our cookies are very yummy but are not at all pretty. Regardless, the kids had a great time.
