Oh Mike! That is one of the funniest this-so I've read! Thanks
for sharing! You made a tense situation so very funny and
interesting. I can just see me doing something like that! Lol.
I did once put pepper in chocolate chip cookie dough. OH my
goodness, did I get in trouble for that one! Well, sort of. I
was in 7th grade. We were in Home Ec class at the Oregon School
for the Blind. We were preparing cookies and other goodies for a
dance that would be held in two days' time. My boyfriend at the
time, was David Hyde, (some of you may know him). He was one of
the most popular boys in school, and I was so happy because I
knew that I wouldn't be a wallflower at this dance. I was mixing
the cookie dough, following a Braille recipe. I reached into a
cupboard and got out a measuring device that placed 1 teaspoonful
exactly of whatever had been placed in it. This time it was
supposed to be salt. I didn't sniff the container-I had no idea
that some idiot would also use it for pepper. So into the dough
went the pepper. Our home ec teacher, Mrs.. Jackson came over
to view my work. "Well," she snapped, "this dough is no good!
Weren't you paying attention at all? You just put pepper into the
cookie dough, so now you'll have to clean up this mess and start
over." Out went the dough. The bowls, spoons, and cups all had
to be rewashed, and I had to start all over again. (Personally
now, I would have only washed the dough bowl and just measured
with the cups again. After all, the only thing that was wrong
was the pepper. But I believe Mrs. Jackson made me rewash
everything to re-enforce my disgrace. No one, until this day,
knew about the pepper in the cookie dough. (Until now, of
course). Debby
