June 13 - National Kitchen Klutzes Of America Day

Happy National Kitchen Klutzes Of America Day! On June 13, today honors any and all of those who would like to cook and be in the kitchen, but it just doesn’t seem to work well for them.

Klutz:  most commonly referred to as a clumsy person. 

Kitchen Klutzes are the people who set out with the intentions of being like Gordon Ramsey or Julia Child as they open up the cookbook. 

As they place the mixing bowl and ingredients on the counter, they imagine knife cuts as swift as Wolfgang Puck or Bobby Flay.  

However, reality quickly dissolves all of those dreams as smoke billows from the oven, and they mistake salt for sugar. Those knife cuts turn bloody, and cookies and fingers are burnt. 

The Kitchen Klutz has struck, and visions of spilled milk are pitifully cried over.   

It may be necessary to keep a first aid kit and fire extinguisher handy when Kitchen Klutzes are around. Be ready to call 911 and have your favorite take out ready as backup if you’re still hungry.
