Is nothing safe? Probably not

Somewhere down the line of postings I mentioned that my daughter, Kathleen, gave me a reinforced glove so I wouldn’t slice off pieces of fingers when using a cutting board and a really, really, really sharp butcher knife. The glove worked well, and no more parts of a finger or blood wound up on the cutting board.

And then late one afternoon I used the glove while trimming pork chops, holding down the chops with my gloved hand and slicing fat from meat.

I got lots of pork chop stuff on the glove, and after finishing the cutting job, draped the glove over the kitchen sink divider.

A while later, going from computer to kitchen to check on the cooking status of supper, I found the glove on the floor, with all of the fingers missing from the middle down.

My big white poodle, he of 92 pounds, will eat anything that has meat on it.
