On the road....
Watching Graham Norton on TV atm (well, its on in the background), he's just commented something about "Boiling a lettuice thinking it was a cabbage"

Well, I've done this once! :o- I now live on microwave meals & transport cafe fodder....

Whats your foobar then? :D
 
I onced tried to cook rice in the microwave... Only problem was I forgot to add water.... Mmm black rice + Stink for a week..... Good times, I was only 13 though!
 
Many a time have i done the school boy error of grabbing things out of the oven gloveless :(

Did something similar today (had a lapse of concentration) in the pub after eating roast tatties covered in pepper.. ouch... :(

I do love my Chillis though and am experienced enough not to do that anymore :)
 
I managed to burn rice at uni once. Put some rice on, ended up going to the bar. Came back to a trashed pan and black smoking rice.

I've also done the chilli thing with eyes/nostrils.

And things like pouring boiling water on cornflakes.
 
my mum managed to get water to combust! ;)

err, i sliced the end of my finger off while cutting an apple just recently (couple months ago) that finger is now shorter than its counterpart on the other hand :(
i had been practicing my knife sharpening and wanted to see how sharp it was, wasn't paying attention, blood everywhere...

you know the drill! :eek:
 
Although I'd been warned against it for years, ever since I was a child, I never did it until about a week ago.

Cut a bread roll in half with a serrated knife and continued through to my hand. Yeesh, it stung.
 
Not cooking but, I recently reached into the fridge for the britta filter but managed to pick up the milk and poured it into a glass of vodka.

You know, it wasn't that bad :p

How on earth did you get as far as pouring before noticing? :p Most people look at the glass to pour, and surely you could notice the difference?! :eek:

Bah. Add half as much Kahlua as vodka present and job done. Nice - albeit sickly - cocktail.

I play guitar, and have my right hand fingernails slightly longer. Was deseeding some chillis and being captain genius decided to use my thumbnail as a scoop. I don’t think I need to say much more, but it was the most painful toilet stop ever. I felt sorry for little bitboy :/

obviously it wasnt the first vodka of the evening :p
I just remembered another one that I managed this evening, I was practising sharpening my knife with a steel and down it came onto my finger and I think ive mastered it because my word it was sharp

I think I was concentrating on what I was pouring into rather than what it was I was pouring. And, it definitely wasn't my first drink of the evening. It didn't even register that I had to unscrew the top.
