Lemon Tartlet And The Dust Bunnies

A tartlet’s adventures in the kitchen, dodging an overenthusiastic kitten, an overly tall man who thinks he’s funny, and the ever present dust bunnies. Somehow, the food gets cooked.

Always Double Check Your Mixer

Posted by lemontartlet on May 9, 2008

If you don’t, you might put it on high speed instead of the low mix speed. It might end up kicking the flour and sugar out of the bowl with a large foof. You could end up looking a lot like this.

Nobody wants that. Do you?

    BAHAHAHA!

    But you really know how to rock that flour+sugar with a cute southern smile. Seriously. I don’t know any baker that this hasn’t happened to. I won’t tell you how many times this has happened to me. I think you’re in good company ;)

    Oops! It looks like you are trying to turn tribal or something!

    I’ve come so close to that - had to settle for the attractive flour spray all over my walls and floor instead! Oh, and have you ever plugged your KA in only to realize that it was already turned to speed 4? With the head still tilted up? Yikes!

    Wow- that is too funny. I have had mishaps with my mixer as well. Flour flying all over. It usually happens after a good kitchen cleaning.

    That’s certainly a very good look for you! ;)

    And since I’m taller, I just get the buig spray of flour ALL over my boobs. Such an annoyance.. especially since you don’t want to do without that amount of flour in case the mix needs it, so you must now guess how much flew out and add it back in.

    my hub always asks why there is stuff all over the mixer. why would *I* know that right?? i mean who knows what the mixer does on it’s own?
