A funny thing happened in the kitchen this morning (and thankfully it had nothing to do with the caterpillars, grasshoppers or crickets). Isaac asked if he could make muffins for breakfast, which I delightedly agreed to. This was his second time making this particular recipe, so I stood back a little and let him take the lead. Perhaps I should have led (or at least paid attention) just a little more than I did though. After he got the batter all spooned into the muffin tins, he swiped a finger around the inside of the mixing bowl, licked it, and pulled a pucker face.
"This tastes weird," he declared.
I also tasted the batter and WHOO-EEEE! That was some batter!
"Isaac, do you remember how much salt you put in?" I asked.
"Let me look. It says right here. Three-fourths cup."
Oh dear, that says three-fourths of a TEASPOON!
We cooked 'em up anyway and served them to his brothers, just for kicks, and then pulled out the cold cereal.
"This tastes weird," he declared.

Too funny! Don't fret, Isaac. We all make that mistake sometime. The good thing is, you probably won't make the same mistake again - and what a fun joke on your brothers!!
