I HATE when that happens. I go crazy. Or worse, when we are out of ketchup or syrup and I did not realize it.

Luckily my cookbook has a emergency substitution page: crushed crackers work!

If I attempt to cook, I need to make sure I have all the ingredients beforehand - since I'll only cook from recipes. DH comes by & starts adding spices & I say "What are you doing! That's not in the recipe!" Also if a recipe has an unidentifiable ingredient, it's axed immediately. capers? forget it ;)
I made cupcakes for Josephs' birthday - they were in the oven for about 7 minutes before I realized I never added the vegetable oil - so I stirred it in the 1/2 baked cupcake - hey they're 4 - you really just need to compensate with extra frosting....

I hate that!!!
I also hate when I forget to put the oven on and then wonder why the cookies (or whatever) arent cooking.

I make up my own substitutions. The other day I needed raspberries for a bread and used appe sauce instead. Still was GREAT!
I am always trialing and erroring to see how i can make a recipe healthier...I am getting pretty good at it!

Back from store, cake is in the oven and I get to the very end of the recipe: it says,
Wrap tightly, and wait AT LEAST 24 HOURS BEFORE SERVING!!!! I DON'T THINK SO!
