Cooking with pain

Sunday night I made crab cakes from the left over lump crab meat from Friday night’s meal. I just remembered that while I was making Friday’s meal, I stuck my pan with vegetables into the oven while I grilled the salmon. When it was time to plate up, I grabbed the pan in the oven with my bare hand. That hurt.

While cooking my crab cakes on Sunday, I somehow managed to stick my finger into the pan that contained 400-some-odd degree vegetable oil. That hurt.

Almost one year ago to the date I grabbed a piping hot pizza stone from the oven with my bare hand. That hurt.

Last night I lobbed off a chunk of my left thumb with my old chef’s knife while cutting squash.

Elise is getting back on her Weight Watchers thing again. I’m going to avoid the kitchen for the rest of March and let her cook.
