You know that saying, “Sh*t happens”. Well, it happened last night. I was so excited when the concept of this bark came to me. I was feeling good-real good. Like OMG, you-guys-are-going-to-love-this good. Well, all that gave way to a failed bark.
Even though failed recipes happen, I still hate them, especially when it’s because of a dumb mistake I made. I’ll expand more on what went wrong when I post the successful bark on Monday. I will be posting two barks next week to make up for this lost one: one on Monday and one on Thursday.
Until then pour yourself a glass of wine and take a sip – then be prepared to bite into some wine for next Monday’s bark.
Welcome to my cozy corner where baking meets random thoughts and musings. I’m a self-taught baker sharing all things sweet (and some savory—okay, and cocktails) with a whisk in one hand and a camera in the other. 
hear that.
went through a couple fails last week on my quest for barknation. lol

Vanillasugarblog and Annie-So happy to hear I’m not alone
Ah, I HATE it when failures happen in the kitchen. I know they’re just part of life, and that’s what happens sometimes when you’re experimenting, but, still. It’s such a bummer!
Looking forward to seeing the non-oops version next week!
Happens to the best of us! At least you had wine to console you!
Kitchen flops are never fun (i can totally relate), but I have full faith that you will conquer! Looking forward to the post! Anyway, what’s the fun in making these treats without a little challenge?
so sorry to hear about the failed bark, but i definitely have kitchen failures! i always learn more from my mistakes than from my successes. i can’t wait to see how fabulous the bark is on monday
have a great weekend, naomi!
We are living parallel lives!! I had a bark failure followed by a glass of wine this weekend as well. Eagerly awaiting the revised versions (from both of us!!)
