I AM NOT! Yesterday I decided to bake. It sounded like a good idea at the time and if you go by the rule... it's the results that matter, then we are good. I make such a mess and I am quite a klutz in the kitchen! I ended up somehow spilling the evaporated milk. (and didn't realize it for sometime) It spilled on the counter top and was underneath all of my other ingredients including my cookbook. Which luckily was a grocery store aisle paperback. I can't be responsible for a real book. Then I picked up the can, thought it was empty, went to take off the label and spilled more on the floor! Oh there is more... picked up the recipe book, tore out the two pages I was working on, placed them on the counter and somehow one page fell in the sink in a pan of water! Really? The splatter of the cookie mix on the wall is nothing! Oh, did I mention that when I went to pop the butter in the mirowave to melt it, the microwave started sparking as if on fire? Yep! So I started cleaning up, then I thought I should take pictures of this mess. I had already started cleaning up, so it doesn't look as bad as it was... but you will get the idea. In case you are wondering, the Orange Pumpkin cookies taste wonderful and seem to be a family pleaser. I included pictures of the Chicken Penne Pasta Al Fresco that I made without any issues. Also included is Rich's cousin Jonathan who is visiting from Oregon, so wonderful to see him and spend some time together. Enjoy.

I love a kindred spirit! I make a complete mess while baking! The outcome is always good though, so I am convinced that the magic is in the chaos :)
Amelia,
It's the artists in us, right?
