I am having a day....and I haven't even started drinking yet. Maybe I should.
First thing I do is make the peppermint cookies. I cannot figure out why they're coming out of the oven flat as pancakes. After the second batch, I look at the recipe and the light bulb comes on in the pea brain....I had doubled the recipe but forgot to double the flour. I actually thought I did. I remember saying to myself OK you need 5 [meaning 5 cups of flour], but I was using a 1/2 cup 'cause I couldn't find the cup, so I counted out 5 all right. I am going to tell people they are French tuiles but I just didn't bend them into curls....
Then I can't get the maraschino cherry cans open and when I do cherry juice flies all over the counter....
Then I can't get the bag of pecans open, and when I start pulling harder, the entire bag explodes open all over the room. There are nuts everywhere. That's about when I started laughing hysterically and decided I probably need a straight jacket or a baby sitter.
And I just now discovered I washed one of my dishrags in with the dishes in the dishwasher.
The scary part is I'm only half done and haven't had a shower yet.
