Stealth went right out the window as the pictures got worse and worse and then I read, "Because while this appears to have been done for comedic value, it actually was not. This was genuinely the best that I could do.". Awesome, just awesome. :D Sneakily reading your blog at work.

I had to run out in the dark of night to buy me some Pillsbury sugar cookie roll up thingies when the ones I made for my kid's hippie school fundraiser turned into a disaster, even by my standards, which are nil. My mom informed me on a recent visit that I've been reading the little markings on butter packages wrong for the last 30 years and have doubled it for every recipe I've ever made. i.e. that's why my banana bread turns into a boiling pan of fat. My husband is convinced I've been trying to kill him...with butter. I’m so glad I’m not alone in being a craptastic baker.

This was coming from a woman who knew the turkey was done when the smoke alarms went off. I am now a woman who can (well, could...I'm not allowed to cook unsupervised now) set a cheesecake on fire while cooking it. I solved the cake decorating problem by setting up a family tradition that the kids decorate their own birthday cakes.

I'm a baker, but I have no decorating skills and mad shaky hands. But I am the cupcake queen. Seriously. My blog runneth over with cupcakes. I'm gonna stick with your problem being the whole kit thing. Definitely. That was seriously one of the funniest things ever.
