Yup, it got infected (I think the person cut herself on a possibly gritty cardboard box while breaking it down for the dumpster) somewhat like this story.
I never really did understand WHY she was doing it - just to say that she was sitting in front of the mindnumbing television, and was eating a carrot and I guess she simply decided to mount the darn thing on the knitting needle. Who knows what goes through the mind of a 14 year old at that point.
And by putting it in quotes are you trying to imply that it was ME??? Hah. Nope, I don't have a scar on the fleshy part of the hand between the thumb and first finger the size of a hole.
Broccoli seriously doesn't work for me - My daughter loves it, and while I will let her cook it for herself, it simply inspires a gag reflex in me. Cabbage - I've only had it in coleslaw, and never did understand why people would want to eat something so bitter.

2. Broccoli's good! And good for you too. Now, cabbage, that's just gross.
