Because of LCW…
I lost quarter of my nail 🙁
It all happened on that Sunday Lee Chong Wei was playing against Lin Dan from China during the Olympic badminton final. I was too kan cheong (excited, nervous) that day. My mind was wandering far…. wondering what combination should I put for Monday bento… wondering if LCW will win the gold… wondering if we will get a holiday if he wins… wondering if I am able to finish my housework by 8.30pm…. wondering if the cabbages I am cutting is enough for today’s dinner and tomorrow’s bento…. wondering if I cut a bit faster, should I be able to finish cooking earlier… wondering… OUCH!
… and all I see is blood oozing out from my finger!
At first, I thought that I have just cut the tip of the nail. But when I saw the blood oozing out, I know I am in deep shit. The blood was covering my index finger and I can’t see how deep is the cut. I even have to rummaged thru the pile of cabbage to look for my nail. Super gross right? How to be a good cook like this? How to secure a San Francisco jobs when the chef position is still open for me to fill up? How! Pardon my imagination again. LOL.
Back to my nail. Yup, I found them finally.
Finger still swollen even thought it’s been five days now. I just can’t wait for a new nail to grow. I get irritated when I can’t type on the keyboard and there are many things that I can’t do with a single hand like tying my hair or even washing my the other armpit! I know that is super gross. -.-
So, what is the lesson for today?
~COOKING IS HAZARDOUS! WE SHOULD EAT OUT MORE OFTEN! ~
Over and out…

You should have cooked your nail fragment along with the rest of dinner.
For flavour!

OUCH! That is a big piece of nail. Somemore can rummage thru your cabbage to look for it! Can imagine how difficult it is operating without one hand. Hope the nail will grow back soon.
