So many mishaps happen in my kitchen daily! Just this morning I put the dutch oven still holding water and silk from last night's boiled ears of corn into the cupboard as if it were clean.

I liked the lemon in the cookie but I've never been big on orange and chocolate. I'm sure they came out delicious.<br /><br />These were a bit of a struggle with me too -- every pan I put in the oven taught me something different to do the next time around!!
