You should have just sprinkled the top with the sugar. No one would have known the difference since it was hot, it would have melted into the topping.

Don't get all stressed out over perfection, you need to enjoy life (even that puppy) and live it. Perfection is never going to happen in any of our lifetimes. I like your DSIL and I don't even know him, but he knows how to back down stressors. :-)

Two years ago for Thanksgiving dinner, I made my usual, pumpkin, apple, pecan and cherry pies but somehow I forgot the sugar in the pumpkin. It was inedible! Thank goodness I had lots of other pies.

Hey! you at least tried making one! and who needs all that sugar anyway(hehehehe) you did good, kid! and the ice cream probably did it wonders anyway.

I made a cheesecake one year for my small quilt groups annual Christmas luncheon. When I took it out of the pan, a small piece fell off and I popped it into my mouth. Just like you, I forgot the sugar!!! Yuck! I called the Kraft help number but they told me there was no way to save it. Turned out to be an expensive mistake .... plus I had to make another one! Sorry to say I couldn't not blame my dog on this mistake. Ah yes, we humans sure can muck things up.

Too many irons in the fire. We all take on more than we can handle.

Okay, so you're human like the rest of us. Happens a lot...and I am not gonna fess up either. I'd have shared it with SIL and dumped some ice cream on top and liked it, I'll bet it was good.

Sounds like the time I got mad at my son's Boy Scout group who were having a party in our back yard and making home made ice cream in a crank-it container. They were playing keep away with boxes of red hots, sprinkling them all over the place. So I took them away from one smart mouthed brat (not saying who, but he has my DNA) and in anger tossed 6 or 8 whole boxes of redhots in the vanilla ice cream and then insisted they eat it. Turns out everyone loved it!!! Even me..sigh.

Read the recipe for the pumpkin dessert yesterday and knew I had the ingredients but short for sugar --no problem as I like less sugar. HUBBY walks into kitchen so I put dish in oven. Oh then I remembert I was to put in milk as you would do when making pumpkin pie. I poured some milk around the outside and mixed which totally ruined the whole idea of the recipe. Was edible but dry.
Relatives would have eaten it tonight but I FORGOT to take it with the jello dish. Thamks for the recipe.
