Oh SNAP!

So today for Mother's Day I went over to Andrea's house to make Ginger Snaps.... I started to mix the ingredients and cook them, to my dismay the cookies did not turn out! I was befuddled about the! I couldn't figure out what I had done to mess up the cookies, I followed the recipe to a T and did everything Andrea told me to! Andrea then made a new batch and they worked out wonderfully! The Professional Ginger Snap Maker decided that the reason why mine did not turn out and hers did is because she told me to used the butter instead of her shortening (she has done it many times), but the butter she had in her fridge was LIGHT MARGARINE! That is why they didn't turn out, so it was not MY fault, but really SHAUN'S fault because he was the one who bought the LIGHT MARGARINE! (hahaha).

So these are my cookies looking sad and rejected in the garbage can... (boo hoo hoo)

And these are Andrea's cookies, beautiful and perfect, a true work of art! (booooooo) (just kidding andrea! I love you!)
So the lesson in this sad story? DON'T BUY LIGHT MARGARINE! (at least don't use it to bake cookies!) :)
