Stupid mistake number ???

While attempting to make french toast this morning, in my sleepy stupor, I sprinkled what I thought was cinnamon on them. Nope, wasn't cinnamon. It was ground cumin. Luckily, my family hadn't eaten any yet. Had to start all over again, this time, making sure I had cinnamon.

Okay, your turn. What sleepy mistakes while cooking have you made???

I did that once. The coffee maker was full and I started it again. It would have been bad enough at home, but this was at the office! I cleaned it up, pretending that someone else was responsible and I was just being nice and cleaning it up.
