My son was helping me make muffins last night.
"Okay," I said. "We need two cups of flour. Can you get some and pour it into the bowl?"
"I'm on it," he said.
Out of the corner of my eye, I saw him scooping some white stuff out of a bag that was on the counter. The bag looked a little bigger than a typical four bag. I figured I'd better check this out. I walked over and read writing on the bag: Easy Sand 20 Joint Compound. It was the stuff my husband had been using to spackle the ceiling.
"Uh, dude. This isn't flour," I said.
He looked puzzled. "It's not?"
"No. If you use that, the muffins will be rocks."
All I can say, is that I'm glad I caught it before the rest of the ingredients went in!
Then you could spackle the ceiling with muffins!
ReplyDeleteThat would be interesting.
DeleteHah! Talk about sitting heavy in the stomach! I'm glad you checked too.
ReplyDeleteIt would have taken a while to digest!
DeleteThat's even worse than mistaking salt for sugar. (True story.)
ReplyDeleteI bet that didn't taste good!
DeleteHi, Sherry!
ReplyDeleteYou would have gotten "plastered" if you ate too many of those muffins! :) That was a close call!
In the post I am publishing tomorrow morning, I will once again be giving you a nod, dear friend. Don't forget to check it out! :)
Good one! I hope I didn't miss the post. Thank you for the nod! You're a good friend!
DeleteHard to digest if you had not noticed Sherry.
ReplyDeleteYvonne.
Hard to bite into, too!
DeleteA muffin ceiling would sure be neat
ReplyDeleteYes, it would!
DeleteThen you'd have indestructible muffins! That might be fun... maybe. :)
ReplyDeleteI think they could be used as weapons.
DeleteMuffins made of ceiling compound...hmm...!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely unusual!
DeleteYou keep joint compound in the kitchen? LOL!
ReplyDeleteThose would have been forever muffins. ;)
My husband keeps joint compound in the kitchen. ;-)
DeleteOh, dear, It's really good you had a keen eye and discovered it before you had cement muffins!
ReplyDeleteI wonder if they would have even baked.
DeleteYikes! As much as I love muffins, an "Easy Sand" variation would be one I'd avoid at all costs, for sure. LOL. Thank goodness you noticed the mistake in time!
ReplyDeleteNo kidding!
DeleteYou could have put those muffins on display, forever!
ReplyDeleteBubba could start a muffin museum. ;-)
DeleteGlad you caught that. That doesn't sound savory.
ReplyDeleteNot at all!
DeleteOuch, your poor teeth if you bit into the muffin without knowing. :-)
ReplyDeleteOMG, that's hilarious! Glad you caught him in time. Lol! xoxo
