The Sugar Cookie Debacle

So, deciding to get into the holiday spirit I took to baking sugar cookies last night -- LOTS of sugar cookies. When all was done there were probably about 70 cookies cut into cute holiday shapes, and being that I'm not a big fan of baking ( it's messy, time consuming, requires exact measuring, lots of mixing and did I mention it's MESSY) . . . I was pretty proud of myself! Karl came into the kitchen and was sniffing around, so I told him he could help me decorate them with icing and sprinkles and then he could have some. After decorating 10 cookies he quit and ate one. I had already had several myself and thought they were pretty good, he however made a yucky face and asked what I put in them. Um, the usual, sugar, butter, baking powder, vanilla and oh yeah white / wheat flour. AH HA! "I wouldn't give those away to people, yuck" -- obviously that comment wasn't received too well considering I had been baking (did I mention I DON'T BAKE) for hours. Again I tasted a cookie, tastes fine to me!
The evening ended with Karl apologizing profusely and me refusing to speak to him, decorating cookies alone and watching Elf on USA.
This morning I tasted the cookies again, still taste fine to me. So this afternoon I called Jada, I didn't want to throw out 70 cookies based on Karl's opinion alone (let's be honest he comes from a traditional cookie baking household, so something a little different, ie wheat flour cookies, aren't received too well!) So after feeding her lunch I handed her a cookie, "Eat it and tell me the truth, is it yucky?"
Her response, yummy! Ha, I thought so! And Jada has no reason to lie to me, she's always honest with me even if it's not what I want to hear, so I knew I could trust her!
So now the cookies are going into their little christmas tins to be distributed to friends. Karl doesn't like them, Karl doesn't have to eat them -- Hailey seemed to enjoy them too, she even said "Mmmmmm" when she was eating her little cookie!!
