Well, there was the time I made a double batch of cranberry muffins and forgot to double the sugar, and to make it worse I was going home for the weekend so brought some of the muffins for my family to try (not realizing my foul-up; I guess I hadn't had one yet)--my sisters gave me all sorts of grief for that one!! That's my biggest cooking fiasco. There was also the time I was making the cranberry salad for Thanksgiving and mixed the jello in cold instead of hot water so it didn't jell too well, but it still tasted fine. One year my mom forgot the sugar in the pumpkin pie at Thanksgiving, and didn't figure it out until we all took a bite and it was bad!! She couldn't believe she did that--oops!
