She had everything in the mixing bowl, and it caught my attention when I heard the high-pitched whine of the electric mixer revving at top rpm. I shouted "STOP!", just as she let the mixer drop into the bowl.
The bowl was IMMEDIATELY empty. Cake ingredients covered the ceiling, walls, and the two of us. She had a shocked look on her cake-stuff splattered face. Then she started laughing.
It has become one of our favorite family stories.
