Remember how I said I accidentally made some pastry dough while attempting to make cupcakes? That wasn't an exaggeration. I absentmindedly started mixing butter and flour instead of butter and sugar for several minutes before I realized my mistake. I almost threw the whole thing in the trash, but then I realized if I added some more flour I could make pastry dough, so I went for it and stuck it in the fridge for later. My baking redemption came in the form of some very mediocre cheese straws.

A mediocre cheese straw is still a hundred times better than a poke in the eye....
