I didn't really believe that I had to knead the dough! I made a wheat brick. Oh the memories.<br /><br />Have a great day, Patience!Lilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13292553654219380455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055690688282230469.post-78022278459544870042016-11-27T12:02:24.692-08:002016-11-27T12:02:24.692-08:00Oh dear, I had to chuckle as I read these -- but j...Oh dear, I had to chuckle as I read these -- but just know you're hardly alone! I distinctly remember one particular kitchen mishap when I was mixing up a batch of pumpkin pie filling on my counter. I reached into my over-crowded cabinet above to grab some spice, clumsily knocking over a container of granulated garlic, which tipped into my mixing bowl underneath, knocking the lid off and dumpling its contents into my filling, oy! I scraped it all out as best I could. I didn't mention it to anyone, and no one said anything -- but I'm positive I could definitely taste an undertone of garlic in my pumpkin pie!<br /><br />Another mishap was my husband's. Way early in our marriage, he thought he'd try baking bread. He used a recipe from a book that made a big batch, reducing the ingredient measurements in his head as to only make one loaf. Apparently he reduced the ratios of all the ingredients, except for the salt. The loaf looked and smelled great -- it was just so incredibly salty it wasn't edible. Still, we tried --I made a bland, unsalted soup to go with it for dinner thinking that might help. We managed to choke down a few salty bites. Then we both woke up a few hours after going to bed that night to run to the kitchen to guzzle down water at midnight because we woke up so thirsty, lol! And in 25 years of marriage I can't remember him ever trying to make bread again!Patiencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17762943370256912680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055690688282230469.post-20196462475493571332016-11-25T13:50:28.873-08:002016-11-25T13:50:28.873-08:00Hi live and learn,
