So my dear sweet bastard of a friend Mr. Skipthisone used to give me the worst grief over my baking follies. I just suck at it. I ALWAYS fuck it up. No matter how hard I try or how close attention I think I am paying I invariably make some miscalculation and it turns out like shit.

This years fiasco involves being very aware of the labeling of a new or new to you product. I, feeling wayyyyyyyyyyyyy overconfident, decided to take on spritz, sweet little crisp butter cookies made using a cookie press. The dough was beatuful for the first batches and the cookies seemed to be turning out ok, despite a few browned dozen. So as I made a new batch of dough I opened a bag of new flour I bought just for these delicacies that is a softer flour. Thinking that if the first batch turned out well this batch would totally rock, I mixed away. As I was throwing the new flour bag in the trash I noticed the labelling, self rising It was at that moment I knew my favorite bastard, wherever the hell he is, was laughing his damn ass off. So now I have Poofz not Spritz. The motto: Check twice bake once

Please feel free to add your helpful tips so that we may be spared our own personal embarrassment by laughing at yours

In these pics I paired up the Spritz with it's matching steroid enhanced cousin Poofz.

Although my story is about baking, my happened about 3 Thanksgivings ago...

Thanksgiving was at my apartment for my kids and my parents, I had been cooking and preparing all day. I made my specialty, sage prochutto stuffing and from scratch pumkin pie. Since my table was small and could only hold our place settings and beverages, i set everything on what little counter space that i had and was going to serve buffet style. In order to make serving the turkey easier i deboned it and put it in the nice matching blue glass Pyrex pans that i had. I set them on the stove and went on getting the seving spoons. I smelled turky cooking a little stronger that what was just a few moments before, and realized that the burner on the stove was still on! as i reached to move the pan, the glass shattered and ALL the surrounding food was covered in glass! I just stood in the kitchen and bawled!

We ended up eating store bought chicken and side dishes that year....

(my pans are all metal now)

I say you take your Poofz™, throw together some clever marketing and bright packaging (or bright marketing and clever packaging) and sell a buttload next year.

<announcer>Tired of the same old Spritz cookies during the holiday season? Well, we've got the cookie for you! Introducing Poofz™, from the Bitchmod Bakery©.

Aqua...that was fabulous!!!
