[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 153770, member: 3626"] Poor Wynter. I used to hate when mine tried a new recipe. It was never good enough and there were always the sulks and pouts. She'd seen me foul up enough recipes to know it's no big deal and certainly not the end of the world. Simply remember what didn't taste right and change that the next time. Have mini-temper tantrums just isn't acceptable. One thing I did find that seemed to help was both of us trying to pinpoint exactly what wasn't "right." Could it be fixed with something as simple as salt? Great, then it was edible now. Did it need more garlic? Garlic powder now and a note to add more to the recipe. And so on. It seemed that the problem solving would get her mind off the "failure" and on to way to rectify it. Sometimes there wasn't a solution and then it was blamed on a bad recipe. Once I even tried making the same thing she did -- hers was bad, mine was awful. That was a seriously bad recipe! What I'm trying to figure out is 1/2 tsp doubled = one cup. That had to be a HUGE can of oregano. [/QUOTE]
