Hmmm. Let's see...

Ages 3-5 I helped Mama make cookies, lots of brownies, and
Jell-O. She always poured the hot water but I can remember being
nervous stirring it because I was afraid of splashing the hot
water...

At age 8 or 9 I made a loaf of French Bread.


I've only had 2 things turn out... ummm... bad (!). Age 12 -
brownies - forgot to add the sugar. Ewwwwwwwww. Nasty.

Age 14 - Oatmeal Cookies - no butter - so I used oil. The
cookies tasted okay but were very, very thin and were spread out.
A 6 inch cookie that was 1/8 th of an inch thick.

Maybe after this thread is over - we should try a "What has been
your favorite success?".
