    Oh dear – looks like high velocity spatter to me!

    • Deb

    Do they have CSI in Paris? Chocolate scene investigator? Nice all-clad, btw. :)

    • Sezz

    You obviously don’t have a dog!! Mine wouldn’t have given you time to get your camera. What were you making?

    I have a hunch it was Colonel Mustard.

    • Brett

    Or maybe Jackson Pollock.

    • EP

    I love you David L. I would come over and lick your floor anytime.

    • Alisa

    Colonel Mustard in the kitchen with a blow torch.

    • Alisa

    Oh! How funny….I should have read the comments prior to mine, before writing…..Or not!

    • Andrea Lin

    The floor’s clean, right? Right? :-)

    • tankeduptaco

    So what was going on immediately prior to the pot’s demise? And where are the remains of the water bath, don’t tell me you were heating chocolate over a naked flame?

    • shauna

    Fifteen-minute rule. It’s fine.

    Oh my — look at the trajectory on that puppy. This is impressive.

    • Kristen

    The HORROR! I will never be the same again……just kidding, nevertheless that must have sucked.

    • Ivonne

    Quelle dommage!

    But look at it this way, you’ve created an edible form of art!

    • Melissa

    That is awfully sad. Very sorry for your loss, Mr. L.

    • David

    It may have been the dirty work of ‘Colonel Mustard’…
    …but it was ‘Mr Propre’ (Mister Clean) that came to my rescue!

    • Matt

    Having the presence of mind to go grab the camera (instead of breaking something, for instance) was quite impressive!

    • May

    Ooh! What died? The chocolate mouse? Doesn’t seem like enough blood to be a human to me. ;)

    • RW

    OH The HuMANity! Oh and its just awful (sob) and the flames and… oh the chocolate falling to the ground… its terrible… terrible…

    • Briana

    Oh the humanity!!!

    • Bea at La Tartine Gourmande

    Oh, I like this! What were you making???

    • mona

    It’s like The New Yorker caption contests. What caption would go best with this picture? Hmmm…
    “Life is like a wall of chocolate…”
    You guys finish the rest:)

    • David

    “The Baker Did It!”…

    • Tongue in Cheek

    Surely you did this on purpose…that way we could beg you to allow us to lick up your floor!
    Who is first in line?

    • Sean Burgess

    I have heard of Alcohol abuse, but never Chocolate abuse.

    So does the 3 second rule still apply here?

    • David

    Well, for a moment, I did consider the ‘3 second rule’, but if you saw what’s lying on the streets and sidewalks here (like dog poopy galore, and lots of pee-pee), you’d be like me: once something hits the ground, it’s gone for good, as far as I’m concerned.

    • Fatemeh

    The best food stylist couldn’t get a spatter that perfect.

    Damn. Even when you’re unlucky, you’re lucky.

    • michèle

    did you really say “dog poopy galore”? Now that is funny!

    • always hungry

    Merde!(that is the extent of my French)
