re: #182 lawhawk

Suggestion for a holiday gift: cut-proof gloves. The Mrs. gave me some after I did something similar a few years back while preparing guac (the lime got away, the avocado was spared).

I actually have a pair stashed in the back with the vegetable chopping mandoline. The problem with using them is that you have diminished fine motor skills.

I have a set of Japanese knives for chopping and slicing vegetables which I treat with deference and respect, and in turn they respect me. I guess the lowly peeler got jealous.

At the ER they asked when was my last tetanus shot. I’m like, I have no idea. Then I asked them, when was the last time someone came in here with actual tetanus?
