I once accidentally made pancakes with flour instead of Bisquick - while it didn't kill them, my brother and cousin swore to never eat anything I ever cooked again (we could've lifted weights with those suckers)! So began, and ended, my cooking career. At age 13.
Best thing I ever did - got me outta cooking FOREVER!!!
Glad your story ended well CG!
"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther
The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill

it might not have held very well, but oh what a shine!
Reaching for the hairspray once, I grabbed the can of Secret powder fresh - 5 minutes before the bus...I had gray hair in 7th grade - now THAT's traumatizing!
I made Beef Stroganoff and after about 2 cups of flour when it still wouldn't thicken, I tasted it...wasn't flour I was putting in but powdered sugar. Dangit, that flank steak is expensive, so I washed the meat and mushrooms off, and started again with flour. It tasted a little sweet.
Now, I smell the white powder before I put it in my stroganoff.
