{Recipe} Sugar Cookies, REGULAR, with NO EGGS, NO DAIRY and NO EGGS

I have recently found alot of different variations on the sugar cookie.  I decided to include a traditional recipe along with two others that cater towards those with food allergies.  So have fun making them for the ones you love, whom normally wouldn't be able to eat them.  Such a relief right?
