Left a brioche proofing overnight and woke up to dough all over the counter

Oh man, maybe your yeast was just really ambitious.

Churn that dough right into the sink next time, @nelson.wren, and save yourself the scraping hassle.

Happened to me last month with a batch of sourdough. Woke up at 4am to a floury mess on the counter and dough dripping down the cabinets. Such a pain to clean up, especially when you're still half asleep and just want coffee. I ended up scraping most of it into the trash and starting over that afternoon. Sometimes the yeast just goes wild and there's no stopping it. Hope your next batch behaves better.
