Guest guest Posted July 8, 2007 Report Share Posted July 8, 2007 I have read this 3 times to laugh. You and I could go through a box of bandaids. I have never ever cut myself on a knife and I use a wicked Santoku knife to peel garlic. Nut give me the potato peeler, microplane zester, mandoline blade or the food processor and I will hurt myself........ Donna --- thirstyfish66 <woodwardc1 wrote: > I love hummus.

Guest guest Posted July 8, 2007 Report Share Posted July 8, 2007 Donna, Like I said, Donna, don't stir the hummus too vigorously. Not only do you need to conserve energy, but -- at least at my age -- if you stir too vigorously you run the risk of tearing muscles and tendons.
