Probably the discover that you cant substitute lemon EXTRACT for lemon JUICE. Call me crazy, or absent minded, but it took a while to pick up on the fact that they're just not the same thing! :-/
And...once I made a great vegetarian lasagna (from this site) and my glass dish cracked in the oven! Knowing how it good it would be we took the risk and ate around it...but I was still sad to lose half the lasagna and my dish!
