Today, I went to make cookies, the box said mix by hand so I literally used my hands. Not a fork or anything. My step-mom walked in and laughed at me. FML

Same thing different taste

Throwing a dinner

By Cathy - 01/12/2024 09:00 - United States - Burlington

Today, I hosted a family dinner. I made a roast, potatoes, green beans, and homemade bread. Everything went smoothly until I realized halfway through I'd used powdered sugar instead of flour. No one noticed at first, then my aunt asked in horror, “Why's it taste like cake?” The rest of the meal was eyed suspiciously and I almost fainted from the stress. FML

Depends on what kind of cookies you were making - sometimes when the dough is very thick, it actually is better to use your hands.

It's really not a big deal. Unless you don't wash your hands... Gross

I know, I couldn't believe what I was reading! I had to pinch myself to make sure I wasn't dreaming!

So you went to make cookies and used your hands to mix the dough. How terrible...

Hahaha, what a moron! "Mix by hand" clearly means "mix and make sure a hand is somewhere nearby," duh!

Mix by hand usually means use a wooden spoon or something like that instead of electric beaters.

I believe "by hand" is one of the strange things we humans call a "figure of speech."
