Burn Notice

I do a lot of baking so I'm careful around hot surfaces. I have potholders and oven mitts that I use regularly. Also, I'm quick to snap back if I accidentally brush something hot. I work around the oven's inherent risks. I don't get burned that often.

Today I got an unexpected burn on the tip of my right ring finger. But not from the oven. From my toaster.

All I was doing at the time I got burned was taking the toast out of the toaster while not looking. I guess my finger got too close to the metal that is stupidly on the top of the toaster. Maybe I should invest in some toaster tongs to prevent future injury.
