best darn: sugar cookie edition

I have been wanting to bring back food reviews.  Paul and I have been taking our Party of 4 to new places, and trying new things.  Truth is, I don't know if I love writing reviews...so I am gonna try something a little bit different, and see if you like it.  Maybe it will be something we can all have fun with.

If you are a food junkie like me, and watch Food Network...you have probably seen the show Best Thing I Ever Ate.  If not brush up on some episodes on youtube.

I will come up with a topic every week.

This week is the sugar cookie edition.

I am going to tell you where I think you can find the best darn sugar cookie ever.  You can either agree, tell me where to find the one you think is better, or not play along. {I hope you choose one of the first two!}

Here is where I tell you where to get the best sugar cookie you will ever eat...

Drum roll...
{365 photo challenge...August 2nd}
Great Harvest hands down has the best sugar cookie I have ever eaten.  If you don't go early enough, they will be sold out.  Make sure you take an arm and a leg with you, because they are $2.50 a piece...which makes me cringe.  Trust me, it is worth it though.

The cookie to sugary icing ratio is fantastic.  Paul doesn't like icing as much as I do...so he scraps some of it off {crazy}.  There has only been 1 or maybe 2 times that I can remember that the cookie wasn't super fresh.  I should mention we go a.lot. so 1 or 2 times isn't bad.

Have you had a sugar cookie from Great Harvest?  Tell me your favorite place to buy a sugar cookie...or just tell me I am right. :)

PS Do you have a food you want me to feature?  Leave a little ditty in the comments.  I would love to share where I think you should go to get the best darn [blank] at.

Schmidts Pastry cottage is my favorite place to get sugar cookies, okay they are my favorite bakery for everything... never had a great harvest one before. I like your new idea.

I have to agree. Great Harvest has the best sugar cookies I've ever bought. I was craving one while I was pregnant which meant it was the only food that sounded good and by the time we got there they were sold out. I had already gone to Kneaders and they were sold out too (btw I like Great Harvest much better). I was so sick and so pregnant at the time that I started to cry right there at the Great Harvest counter. Luckily I don't think they recognize me as the crazy pregnant woman who cried over a sugar cookie shortage.
