muddlings
Clumsy handling episodes
Muddlings are the results of muddling—confused, disorganized efforts or the messy outcomes they produce.
The word often carries affection for imperfect attempts: Her early muddlings in the kitchen eventually became real cooking.
In bartending, muddlings are the crushed ingredients—mint, fruit, sugar—at the bottom of a cocktail.
