Yet another to skip the sauteing and hit the Salt House, CHOW's Joyce Slaton has word that an Anderson, South Carolina man died this week after he stabbed himself while cooking. According to Slaton:
Michael Downing first burned himself on some noodles he was cutting up in a pan on the stove, and then accidentally stabbed himself in the chest with the knife when he jerked his hand away. Authorities say the steak knife slipped between Downing’s ribs and pierced his heart. His two sons, 8 and 10, witnessed the accident.
Yikes. And to top it off, it seems that Downing also just shed 150 pounds.

Isn't Anderson in the East Bay, too?
Well, at least he accomplished his goal before dying. That's more than most accomplish.
Ironically that fat probably would've prevented the knife from ever reaching his heart.
The 8 year old did it.
Cripes.
And I get pissed at myself when I get a nick on my finger while speed slicing veggies with my 10" Wusthof.
and I thought I was clumsy in the kitchen.
Brock, I read this blog to get ha-ha depressed, not actually depressed.
can someone suggest hillary start cooking for herself?
;)
Those poor boys! That poor man! and his fiancee...
I use a "big Chinese knife" like Martin Yan. Impossible to stab yourself. You have to keep the top and sides clean, and not care that stuff sticks to it. You can use it to shovel chopped up bits into the saucepan.
Hilary?? Cook??!!! Hell, she can't even give a proper blowjob to keep her hubby in line.
