Hilarious story! I don't have kids, but I'm sure that I did that same thing to my mom before I learned to cook. Your response to the lady that was snide to you was lovely. You sound like you're as good a person as you are a baker. Can't wait to make these cookies over the holiday!
Amber, I make these a LOT. It's fun to customize with different fruits, nuts, and chips - go with your audience. For instance, kids seem to like ALL chocolate chips, while adults like more of a variety, esp. cranberries and pecans, in my experience. Have fun! - PJH
