I'm such an idiot.

If God had meant for us to hold "fire," he would have given us potholder hands.

I have a bad habit of pulling the oven rack out, putting the pot holders down, testing whatever it is, then pushing the rack back in without grabbing the holders first! So you aren't alone.

Hope it heals and feels better soon!

Owwwwwieee if I had a dime for everytime I've done that one I'd be a rich woman. I hope your fingers will feel better soon.

Wow, I'd be picking brownies up from the floor. Hope it heals up asap.

Gawd..if I had a dollar for every time I did that. *Slaps forehead*. Hope you're OK and appying aloe. I sometimes saturate a gauze pad in aloe, then wrap it around the injured area with tape and leave it on for a while. We keep gallon containers of aloe vera. If it's any consulation.. as a brownie fanatic..they sound great. Care to share the recipe?

Ouch, Ouch, OUCH!!!
I've been wanting to get an aloe plant too!!
I once found out the hard way that I had a hole in a pot holder while pulling a tray full of cookies out of the oven once. YIKES!! I dropped the tray and aimed for the top of the stove, but missed and hit the edge of it and flung warm, ooey, gooey, choc chip cookies all over the kitchen.


Hope your fingers heal up quickly!

Thanks for the well wishes....my fingers are much better this morning. I can type with two hands again

And the sad part? The brownies weren't even worth it. I'll post a link to the online recipe (its from Taste of Home magazine). If you like uber sweet then you will like these. They were just wayyyy too sugary for my taste. And, they were a lot of work, and lots of dishes, too.

You can find the recipe here
