When baking an angel food cake, make sure the rack is lowered first. It’s a “growing” cake... therefore, it will grow... thus taking over the heating element above if not on a lowered rack... thus making a huge mess... 🤦🏼♀️

Put your contacts in or your glasses on before grabbing the tube of hair conditioner instead of toothpaste. 😳9

When grabbing a diet coke make sure you don't grab a beer instead. They just don't taste the same and you could have repercussions if you work at home with children and their parents find out. Oops.5

Take your contact lenses out BEFORE chopping the jalapeños.11

Do not store your fruit syrup next to a same shaped bottle of pumpkin seed oil. Noone needs super concentrated raspberry drizzled over their beans/onion/tomato salad.
Also shoutout to my mom storing salt in a glass jar labeled "Sugar". My banana bread came out salty as heck9 -

Ouch. I decided to leave those devils alone altogether when dummy me chopped them without gloves. My hands were red, burning, and swollen for two days afterward!

I was chopping some chili two days ago and got some in a little wound under my nail. After two days, it still burns.6 -
Cinnamon sugar chicken anyone?
I had a cold and didn't notice the blunder until my brother came home and asked when the cinnamon rolls would be done.
Jar with cinnamon sugar and jar with home made meat spice look the same. The cold meds seemed to have scrambled my brain.
It was an .. interesting taste combo...8 -
I forgot to tear a vent in the bag of rice that was heating in the microwave. The bag exploded, and my microwave looked like a snow globe.10

When setting up the slow cooker for your daughter to start/turn on before she goes to school (because you leave too early) - include 'make sure its plugged in' in the instructions. Arrived home 4pm, chicken still raw (shock). It was years ago but I assume we ordered pizza.
Though now I have a programmable cooker...7 -
When making pickled veggies don't cook part of the veggies and spices, making a huge mess in the kitchen and then throw a big pile of salt into the vinegar instead of sugar.3

When cooking soup in slow cooker and adding cream at last minute, dont ruin hours of cooking by using gone off out of date cream.8

If the dehydrated chipotle and habanero peppers have gotten a little too humid to grind up well in the mortar and pestle, and you decide to use the microwave to fully dry them out, be really careful: Too long in there, and you literally have a kitchen full of stinging, choking pepper fumes.
Oh, and another one: If the pan is a little small for those buttery homemade cinnamon rolls, be aware that the smoke alarm will go off when the expanding rolls pour butter onto the gas oven's floor, and it ignites in lively flames.8 -
The avocado oil SAYS is has a smoke point of 500 degrees...
the smoke alarm says otherwise.12 -

I must confess a bad habit: I sometimes bite my nails. Today I was biting. 6 days after chopping that chili, putting that nail in my mouth burned.
And yes, I live in the same world with covid and wash my hands with soap multiple times per day. That is one persistent chili.5 -
Don’t misread ‘Tamari’ for ‘Tabasco’ in your recipe and put 2tbsp in your Kidney Bean dish.
This was years ago when I’d just left home and had never heard of either product (early 1980’s) but I always think of it when I pick up the Tamari, even now! 😂4 -
Amazon third party liquid sucralose comes in the same type of clear squeeze bottle I use for mixing down 99.99% electronics cleaner into ~70% hand sanitizer. And both are clear liquids...2
