Ouch!!!
This time I'm serious. No, I mean really serious. I think I have to amputate my finger.
/dramatics
I burned my index finger on my right hand. I went to pull the thermometer out of the chicken that was in the oven. I did it barehanded. Um, ouch. Michelle came in as soon as I did it because she was afraid I was going to pass out and hit the floor. No, it would not be the first time that has happened. I now have a nice burn mark about an inch long on my finger.
Word to the not so wise: Always use a pot holder or something when taking hot things out of the oven.

Ouchie!!! I hope you stuck it under cold running water right away. And no butter!
Poor Carey.
So, can I have your serving of chicken?
I ran it under cold water immediately and for a long time. No butter. Then Michelle went and got burn ointment and a bandaid. It's already blistered pretty badly.
*burp* You can suck on the bone. I didn't save any scalloped potatoes either. I'm sorry.
Ouch! Cold water is not good for a burn. Lukewarm water is best. Just ask the goober in my house who was burning a brush pile that happened to have a spray paint can in it. He's also the resident EMT.
I? have never done something like this. Nope. Never. Not even when I desperately wanted a chocolate chip cookie.
I'm with Momma, I've never done anything like this either. Not even after preheating the oven and realizing there was something in the oven that needed to come out ASAP. Nope.
*whistles out of blog*
*smooches* for the finger, BTW.
A thermometer? I told you to just wiggle the wing and you would be able to tell if it was done. *grin*
The entire ordeal was a disaster.
The wing never ever wiggled off of the chicken. Originally I did it based on time. I took it out after a little over an hour. Proceeded to spill beer all over the inside of the oven. The meat was still pink and Michelle refused to eat it. Even thought the temp was 165 degrees. Back in the oven it went. Which threw off the timing of the potatoes.Anyhow, I let it cook for 20 more minutes. That's when I put the therm. in the chicken while it cooked. So Michelle could see that it was done. Then I spilled more beer on the floor. Then I burned my finger.
The chicken ended up tasting very good though. I hope I remember to grab the leftovers before I leave for work in 15 minutes.
You were making some kind of Beer Butt chicken?
*smooches Carey's finger*
As long as you didn't use ice. Ice is not good for a burn.
Is today All Stah's birthday?
OWWWWW! I grabbed a stainless steel pan handle in the oven once. No explanation for why I did it barehanded. *sends flowers to carey in the burn unit*
Heh! You're talking to the gal who has:
1. Cored hot peppers with bare hands
2. Grabbed a hot can of sterno from the fondue with bare hands
3. Burned right arm twice in the same place by trying to get something out of the oven
4. Burned right arm (yes, in the same place) from touching the hot motor of the pressure washer
5. Burned underside of left arm by reaching over the steam of the kettle to pull out the plug
*smooches Carey's boo-boo*
Burns. Yep. I know them well.
Did you remember your leftovers?
Cause I'm hungry.
FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!
I forgot my leftovers.
Today is not a good day.
If you need me, I will be in the looney bin for the day. *sobs*
*head tilt* But you're always in the looney bin.
*kicks breezy*
*trips carey*
*throws 5lb can of coffee at Breezy*
Can you be my pot holder?
ear
*snort* Okay, that made me laugh out loud. LMAO
*ducks*
*shoots rubberband at carey*
Quapoot?
Why are you throwing ducks at me? *head tilt*
Ouch Carey! Have you drained the blister yet? That's best to help it heal.
I have four burn marks from various wood stove incidents.
Also when you're making beer can chicken, it's best to put the chicken and holder into a baking dish or pan. That way when you tip it a little, it spills into the dish and not the oven.
Oh my heck, No. If I tried to pop it, I would 100% pass out. No doubt. I skeeeert.
I had it in a pie tin. But next time I will put it in a deeper dish.
You would seriously pass out? Even if you just took a pin and pricked the very edge of the blister? Have Michelle do it. It will heal WAY faster that way.
Ouch. :(
The worst burn I ever got was when I was heating up a lean cuisine in the microwave. When I went to take the plastic off, the steam was out of control and burned my thumb to shit. OMG it hurt so bad. It throbbed for 2 days. Are you really not supposed to put ice on burns? *head tilt* Maybe thats why it hurt for so long, I was icing it. *shrug*
*healing burn vibes* *swalt*
Ack. Just reading that made me a little faint.
Dude, I hit the floor once when I stabbed myself making kabobs. And I didn't even break the skin.
P.S. my email isn't working if anyone is trying to email me.
Carey, you are a piece of work! Can you imagine if you were as clumsy as I am and suffered injuries like crazy?
The only injury that I have ever had that really grossed me out was when I had food poisoning and barfed so hard I blew a blood vessel in my eye. The entire inside half of my left eye was blood red. Ick. I was hard to put make-up on in the morning. Hell, it was hard to look as me at all!
I have done that too, Jen. And yes, it hurts like hell. *kicks Lean Cuisine*
Tkit, I would be in perpetual pass out mode if I were as clumsy as you are. *snort*
awww. *blows on burn*
hey! I always ice my burns too.
Poor little burn victim. Is there a telathon planned?
Good lord girl....it was in the OVEN which was ON!!!
ok....smooches the finger!
Hey survey, maybe we can put together a song, like "We are the World," only for Bravie the Burn Victim.
What should we call it?
I know. I was having a very blond(e) moment.
Ooooh, yes, a charity even would really make me feel better. Thank you.
*smooch*
I could probably top this with a story about one of the incredibly stupid things I have done in the kitchen, but I won't.
Poor you.
I do crap like that all the time. The worst one was when I was cooking and there was something under the burner smoking lke crazy. I turned the burner off and removed the pot. Then, in order to get the burning crap our of the tin foil thingie, I tried to remove the burner with my bare hands.
Ow. Ow. Ow. I had white streaks on 2 of my fingers.
Ya'll are making me feel less stupid. *grin*
Okay - a start to our charity telathon song, and we can split the royalties, since we have to pay for the original recording session. Who wants to sing bass?
*Singing to the tune of Oh, Suzanna*
Oh I went up to the oven and my fingers they were bare,
Trying to get my arms clear and denuded of all hair.
Oh poor Carey, oh won't you send money
She will be so grateful and tax receipts are free.
Nookie can play the accordian, breezy can clog. I will learn to play the banjo.
Ya'll are making me feel less stupid.
Well crap, let's try harder folks, this is *not* how it's supposed to be working! *grin*
*SNORT* Love the song Survey :-)
