Last Saturday was a total baking nightmare with 3 failed loaves in a row

I had the worst baking day of my life last Saturday. Tried to make sourdough and my starter was totally dead even though I fed it the night before. Then I attempted a chocolate cake and forgot to add the eggs until after it was in the oven lol. Finally I went for some simple sugar cookies and the dough was so sticky I couldn't even roll it out. I wasted like 8 hours and probably $15 on ingredients that all ended up in the trash. Has anyone else had a day where absolutely nothing worked in the kitchen?

Honestly I used to think baking fails were just people being dramatic but after that exact kind of day I get it now. Three fails in a row is brutal, especially when you put in real effort.

The third fail is honestly the worst because by then you've already used up all your patience and most of your ingredients. Tbh there's something about that moment when you pull out a third sad batch that just breaks you inside a little. Ngl I've had to just walk away from the kitchen mid cleanup because I couldn't look at the mess anymore.
