Epic Fail as a Wife

My epic fail as a wife happened this morning. I had the best plans to wake up early with my husband and bake him homemade from scratch strawberry muffins. I got the recipe online. I made sure I had the strawberries. I had it all planned out in my head the sun shining, me in the kitchen cooking for my man and the smell of strawberry muffins wafting through the house.

My intentions were good. Great almost I would say. So I woke up when the sun started shining. Ryan made coffee for us and I started to get into cooking. Usually he eats a yogurt as soon as he wakes up. Strawberry yogurt of course. Not this morning though! I was going to make homemade yumminess and he was going to fall over loving me even more because his stomach would be full of love.

I got all the ingredients out and bam….no baking soda. Now for anyone else in the world this probably wouldn’t be a problem. For us though the closest even mini mart is over 30 minutes away.  I searched and searched for it as I know we always have some in the fridge but we recently moved and apparently that item didn’t come with us. So I decided that I still have this morning under control and looked up what to substitute it with.

I was amazed at my own ingeniousness. Is that even a word? Anyways I thought this is going to be a great morning. Set the oven and put in the muffins.

BAM! The smell started and I was like oh this is going to be great!

Timer went off and my muffins that looked like they were going to raise didn’t of course. It almost looked like a cookie. Epic Fail!

I told my husband that I am sure this is because of the cup he gave me this morning ha! We decided to try the cookie looking muffins anyways. Guess what…..they tasted pretty good. Who knew!

So the lesson I learned this morning was to always make sure you have all the ingredients before you bake. Also maybe I should be more of a dinner recipe person than a breakfast one. We can stick to yogurt and fruits in the morningJ
