I think I botched a key lime cheesecake from VP as well, but that was edible, whereas the others were not.Candy Beanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05040084842323712707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1263871600916392883.post-72462904952231806202010-11-13T07:03:34.200-08:002010-11-13T07:03:34.200-08:00I've slipped with the mixer and thrown chocola...I've slipped with the mixer and thrown chocolate cake batter everywhere, including up on the ceiling, before!

I just wash them and then pop them in the freezer so I don't have to bother with getting them 100% dry.<br /><br />I put my car in neutral every time I go downhill. Clark Howard (money guru) says it can save about 30% of your gas. <br /><br />I use a BPA free water bottle and refill it often.<br /><br />I only run my dishwasher when it is completely and absolutely overflowing with dishes. <br /><br />I buy about 90% of clothing at thrift stores.<br /><br />Most of the pictures I take in my house have are of poor quality because I only use the energy-efficient curly lightbulbs.
