Today, satisfy your sweet tooth with a cookie. It’s National Sugar Cookie Day!!! Put out a plate of sugar cookies and you can be certain they won't be there for long. Once the cookies have baked, let them cool a little, then pop them into your mouth while they’re still warm. https://t.co/E9fsUXIgfR
