Blond moment

[mousme]

Dear Self,

Here's something to remember. When you are chopping onions and your eyes water, when you go to take out your contact lenses, wash your hands first before sticking your onion-laded fingers right into your eye.

You'd think this would be self-evident, but you'd be wrong.

Love,

Me

I hate when my brother's wife chops onions, they always make my eyes water.

Two things that help keep onions from making eyes water: a refrigerated onion and a very sharp knife.

A trick for avoiding the watery eyes in the first place...

Cut both the top and bottom off the onion first and run it under cold water. I learned that trick from the ex and she swears by it.
