Trying to impress a college girl I called my mom for her quiche recipe. The ingredients called for two cloves of garlic. Not knowing the difference between a clove of garlic and a head of garlic. I used two heads of garlic instead of two cloves. It smelled so good while it was cooking. After our first bite, we both spit the quiche out. Took a big drink from our beers and went out for a pizza. I’ve never made that mistake again.

While (attempting) to make cornbread, I placed a brick of frozen creamed corn into a blender that was spinning with the remaining ingredients. When the corn refused to play nice and “blend,” I jammed a fork down into mess to break up the frozen bits, unwittingly putting the fork into the spinning propeller of the blender, abruptly stopping the blades and sending a cloud of creamed corn, milk and butter flying into the air. While picking corn off of the ceiling for the next hour, my wife joked that I was like Michelangelo in the Sistine Chapel, only my medium was corn instead of paint.
