I can cook like a dream. But I cannot bake. I'm a baking failure. I made scones. From a mix. Only one ingredient to add. Water. They still failed to cook up properly.

If it makes you feel any better I am a failure at saving money!

I have this WONDERFUL Mulled Cider Honey Spread, and nothing to put it on. Well, I did have one bad scone with the honey. I can't just keep eating it off a knife.

I did preheat the oven. I know baking is my only area of cooking I have issues with. So I was meticulous in following the directions.

Maybe the directions were wrong?????

Baking can be tricky business, humidity, room temp, variation in over temp can play havoc.



Thats what I say when I wind up baked baked frisbees.

I stick to cookies. I'll eat them even if they turn into hockey pucks.

And the baking failure doesn't make me pissed. It just makes me sad.
