I almost forgot to salt my shakshuka this morning. It came out a little watery because canned tomatoes. Also i cooked the eggs a little too long.

Worst thing ever. Also another time I put cayenne pepper instead of paprika into chicken and dumplings because they were right next to each other on the shelf. It came out very very hot.

Reminds me of the time I covered my cereal in cayenne because the bottle looked identical to the cinnamon

Not cooking my steak to well done. Inedible otherwise

The first sounds retarded, but the second sounds pretty good to a hothead like me.

Other than my amateur mistakes like saying "Hey it's one cup of milk, and I only have chocolate milk, what can it hurt?" I guess I could say when I accidently dumped a shitload of paprika (not knowing the top was off) into some seasoned flour for frying.

The color of the flour was purple, but it ended up tasting great.
