You're up against uncommon competition, if I say so myself.

Within about a week, I:
- scattered the contents of a large cutting board (green bean ends/scraps) all over the floor;
- managed to procure a third-degree burn on my upper arm from contact with a just-turned-off glass stovetop burner (who forgets that a burner was on within two minutes of shutting it off oneself?);
- nearly burned the house down by spilling coffee grounds all over the very same burner while it was being used (on high) to boil water (though now our house smells like slightly over-roasted coffee beans---worse things could happen);
- scared the cat out of the room by opening a cupboard and causing a small avalanche of plastic measuring cups and coffee brewing instruments...

On the upside, amidst all this chaos I set my personal best record for drop biscuits. Yum.

"Christ has done great things for his people, and he has suffered great things for his people, and he has purchased great things for his people, and he has prepared great things for his people; yet many of his own dear people are so taken up with their own hearts, and with their own duties and graces, that Christ is little eyed by them or minded by them! This is the great reason why so many Christians, who will certainly go to heaven—do walk in darkness, and lie down in sorrow." - Thomas Brooks

A profitable week indeed, Laura!!

"He hath showed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the Lord require of thee,
but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God."
Micah 6:8

Klutz move #1- Positive boon. Us carnivores have no respect for green beans.
Klutz move #2- Positive boon. It is irrefutable proof that you slaved over a hot stove. Score sympathy points and a future dinner on the town.
Klutz move #3- Positive boon. You already said it... Can you say, 'cheap whole-house potpourri'?
Klutz move #4- Positive boon. Funny as all get out, so you get positive points. Bonus points if you got it on video and can post it on YouTube.

So all that's left is the drop biscuits, which you admit are your personal best. So now you know the full process of performing at your peak potential. Klutz on, sister!

At least you didn't mis-cram soap anywhere?

Dear Lord and Father of mankind, Forgive our foolish ways;
Reclothe us in our rightful mind, In purer lives Thy service find,
In deeper reverence, praise. - John Greenleaf Whittier 1807-1892

If you need to beat me up because you're stressed or whatever, feel free. However, it'll set you back about $10 every 5 minutes.

sometimes my wife will drop the whole meal on the floor, shes gotten to the point were we will still eat it depending on when she mopped last. i think your in good company

Very insightful indeed! Though I resent the green bean-dissing. I'll have you know that there was plenty of bacon in the final product!

Unfortunately I do not have a webcam in my kitchen to capture golden moments such as the cat's terrified exodus.

I can't believe I'm incurring risk to myself by quoting and countenancing your own boldness, but LOL.

What, are steamed veggies only to be served with Asian food or something?

Oh wow. I think I would cry. No matter when I last mopped, we have a cat ... we don't wash her paws ...
