finger still attached

It’s been a crazy month.  (More to come on that in the next post or two.)  But, yesterday I had an experience that made me thankful for one of my OCP tendencies.  For my entire life, I have refused to put knives in the dishwater when washing dishes because I was afraid of accidentally cutting my hand.  So, yesterday, I was ready to wash the knives and put them into the dishwater, and decided to quickly scrub the cutting board first.  Ironically, scrubbing the cutting board led to jamming my hand into the dishwater too hard and fast, and managing to slice open my pinky finger.  So, now I have a justified reason for this OCP trait.  Never again will a knife enter my dishwater!

    Now that is funny! We have put them into the dishwasher for years and no one has ever been hurt :-)

    I always put mine in the dishwasher, tip down. I speared myself one morning reaching when my mother had loaded the dishwasher with a knife tip up.

    Hmm, maybe I will start putting the knives in the dishwasher.
