I guess we all have our day....I remember a very long time ago (probably longer than 30 years ago) I was making a sour cream poundcake for something. The recipe called for 6 eggs. The first time I made it I forgot the sugar. Then I made it a second time and forgot the baking soda. So into my second dozen of eggs I finally got it right...Since that day, I have always had my ingredients lined up waiting for me. (mise en place--sp?) Thx for sharing your mistakes, it makes us amateur bakers not feel alone.
