Eva baked breakfast pastries

[conuly]

Her cinnamon ones are good, but too heavy on the cinnamon. They could use a better cinnamon/brown sugar balance in the filling, and maybe a smidge of salt.

I digress.

When cleaning up she carelessly put one of my dinner bowls inside her next-smallest mixing bowl. It's a perfect fit.

*headdesk*

I've carefully tilted the water out and filled the inside glass bowl with ice. In a few minutes I'll submerge the bottom of the plastic bowl in hot water and hopefully that'll be enough to dislodge my bowl without breaking it due to the temperature differential.

I have, of course, explained this to Eva, with the caveat that she really can't ever put one thing inside another if it fits perfectly. Well, with luck she'll only make this mistake once. I'm sure I've made it more often.

Edit: I thought I'd never succeed, but I persevered and now the bowls are separated once more.

I'm skeptical about this too much cinnamon thing.

I would not have believed it myself.

I know, right?

I'll believe that an upper limit exists, but for now I find it astonishing.
