I have burned myself more times than I care to imagine. I now try to remember to wear oven mitts when possible.

I do remember cutting myself pretty badly one night, but it was after dinner (and several bottles of wine) when I was washing the dishes. I was sort of drunk, so I hardly noticed that I had taken a chunk off my knuckle.

As for cooking mishaps, I was trying out a new dessert recipe and the recipe said to melt butter and then roll the dough balls in the melted butter and then sugar and cinnamon. Well, I completely misunderstood and ADDED the melted butter to the sugar and cinnamon. I ended up with a sopping, sticky mess.
