Dear Kat McCoy,

  Hi, and Merry Christmas! Also, I have a problem. I was making cookies for the class since it is christmas. Only one problem, though. I accidently used salt instead of sugar! People just can't let it go, even on facebook! What should I do to stop their little jabs of "fun"? Thanks for all your help and hope this makes your book!

Dear Sweet 'n' Salty,

No need to include my last name! We're all just friends here. Sorry to hear about your delima. In case you didn't realize, this is a classic problem. Just ignore them. Everyone is bound to mess up one time or another. If they laugh at you, laugh with them, and the next time someone screws up and feels like a total fool, remember this time so that you don't be mean, too. Over time this trouble should go away. Hope this helps!

xoxo,

Kat
