Two toddler brothers caused carnage in their home after breaking into a locked cupboard and plastering the furniture in flour and water.
Hilarious footage of the messy aftermath shows Jacob Lack, three, and younger brother Reggie, 18 months, innocently glaring at the camera while covered in the sticky, white paste.
Mum Sam Sherwood, 39, had nipped out for just minutes when the crafty pair managed to pick their way through a child lock in the kitchen.
After opening the bag of flour, the mischievous brothers also managed to spill the family dog's water bowl - resulting in the entire ground floor of their Oxfordshire home getting strewn in the gloopy mess.

Sam, a waitress, said all she could do was laugh as the took in the total carnage her sons had caused in the kitchen, hallway and living room.
She said: "I'd nipped outside for just a few minutes and when I came back in, I saw the flour sprinkled on the floor.
"We'd bought the flour for Pancake Day and it'd been in the cupboard with a child lock on it but they managed to get into it anyway - the crafty things.
"It was one of those things where I knew from experience that it was about to get much worse as I went round the corner so I started filming."

Furniture on the ground floor was covered in flour bought to make pancakes on Shrove Tuesday 
Cautiously walking around the rooms of her house, Sam knew to expect the worse.
As she entered the kitchen, her dog's bed and both her children were covered head to toe.
Sam said: "When I got into the kitchen Jacob said 'not me, Reggie did it', then Reggie looked at me and just said 'flour'.
"It went all through the living room, hallway and kitchen.
"Whoever said to have kids together because it's easier was wrong. I just had to laugh or I'd probably cry."

Despite Sam's shock at the chaos caused by her adorable little boys, it's not the first time Jacob and Reggie had raided the cupboards in the hunt for some fun.
She added: "They've done this before with a kilo of rice. We had fun with that and played with it for an hour before cleaning up.
"This time the flour had mixed with the water from the dog's bowl and formed a lovely paste, they enjoyed playing in this too."

Sam claims she couldn't help but laugh and when her partner came home from work, he jokingly asked if they'd been baking that day.
Sam said: "In the end it was quite easy to hoover it up and took about 20 minutes to give it the once over, but there's still little bits of flour around.
Sam Sherwood, 39, and partner Richard say their little boys are often mischievous throughout the house 
"Jacob thought he was helping me by sucking all the water out of the toilet. Anything that could have gone wrong that day went wrong.
"The kids were covered in it, they had to be stripped down and bathed straight away.
"When my partner Richard came in, he just said 'so we've been baking then having we?' He's just used to it now.
"The youngest two are always getting up to no good together. I just hope by sharing this it makes a few other mums giggle."
