Is my mommy career doomed?!

Tweet

My mom did a GREAT job raising me. She taught me a LOT of stuff about cooking, cleaning, and laundry, etc. The problem is, I stayed single WAY too long to make use of any of it. Case in point: I had to make muffin/cupcakes Saturday evening for Sunday morning service. Mind you, these were from a BOX. We're talking Pillsbury and Betty Crocker, folks, not even from SCRATCH. Well, I wanted to make 'em a little fancier since they were just out of the box. So, I cooked the carrot cake muffins in a mini-bundt pan and made the yellow cake into mini muffins with cute, trendy little wrappers. I thought I was so clever. Well, the yellow cake cupcakes came out underdone or too oily or something. Plus, I didn't bake them in a real mini-muffin pan, so there was room between the muffin and the pan, which resulted in the wrappers not really sticking right. The mini bundt carrot cakes looked, just funky. I guess real bundt cakes are more dense than box cakes. Yes, folks, it does get worse! I decided when I woke up Sunday morning that I need to have "more" goodies to bring to church. I thought I could make little cinnamon roll up thingies out of Bisquick. I rolled out the dough and brushed on some melted butter and cinnamon. I then rolled it up and sliced it into little "pin wheels." I put 'em in the oven and went to finish getting myself ready for the day. When I came out, my hockey pucks were done! Hockey pucks wasn't what I was going for...so I didn't even bother packaging those up! So, as I look forward to becoming a mommy some day, I am now concerned about my future contributions to bake sales. Side note: Thankfully, someone came to my rescue Sunday morning and gave me some cashola to buy some store bought treats! Thank goodness!
