Everything I make is tried and pretty good. I'm only average on desserts. I tried a new recipe for dessert. When I turned it out on the plate , there was no wobble, it collapsed. Pretty embarrassing!! I can't even think of the name of it now. The vanilla one?

No the other one, dam mind blank. Bits of vanilla on top of successful ones. Crazy my mind won't click.

The very first thing I ever tried to cook for a date was a disaster.
I had promised an Italian girl that I just started dating that I would cook her dinner. She said she loved shrimp parm, so I set out to make it for her, even the sauce from scratch.
About an hour before she came to my apartment, I put the shrimp in the sauce and let them cook.
We choked down rubber shrimp parm that night.

Panna Cotta?
Oh dear! I had a friend (now departed) who had some strange theory about cooking live mussels - that they should be put in cold water and gradually heated until boiling then simmered for ten minutes - he thought it was more humane. There was a similar rubbery result.

I did that once!
Recently I was making a small pan of garlic mushrooms for myself, to serve on toast. They tasted slightly weird. I checked the tube of minced garlic in the fridge, that I'd used a little squirt of. But it said pureed ginger!
