"This is my invariable advice to people: Learn how to cook- try new recipes, learn from your mistakes, be fearless, and above all have fun!"
— Julia Child (My Life in France)
A harmless cooking error can easily lead to, well let’s just say, an unsatisfactory dish! If you, too, have used salt instead of sugar in your chocolate chip cookies (for a bake sale no less!) or made carrot cake without the carrots (we've done that, too), you also know that an embarrassing mistake can result in a great laugh! Do you have a funny cooking blunder to share? We’d love to hear about it...
Email Elyse@foodista.com:  Tell us your name, where you're from, your "culinary uh-oh" in 50 words  or less, and send us your photo (optional!)...Then, we'll feature five  of the best on Foodista! Or, if you just want to share your story, feel  free to simply post it in the comment field below...Promise, we won’t laugh!
