clumsy git
sorry folks, but no updates for awhile as i have just managed to burn every finger of my left hand and hence typing is a bit of a chore.
note - multi-tasking while absent minded is not wise, as it may lead you to do things like grab the grill over your gas burner with your bare hands…
edit - after 24hrs of ice application, the pinkie has been saved, but remaining four are to remain covered in burn treatment cream and elevated for about a week.
thanks for the well-wishes folks, and expect my triumphant return in about a week! :smile:

John Ellie, I bet it hurt. happens so often in the blink of an eye you grab some pan thats just out of the oven, usualy in the stress of service. My apprentice has now a week off to recover from a similar burn, great for me and mystaff(lack of) 
Parisukat ohh sorry to hear about what happened to your fingers. I hope they’d get well soon. I’m looking fwd to your updates and new recipes. Get well and God BLess!
Yowza that looks painful! Have a speedy recovery.
Belinda Oh no, Ellie! Bless your heart. 
I hope the pain has gone away by now, and that you are well on the road to complete recovery…and baking very soon.
Tanna Yikes, that should not be. Cute finger covers. Take good care of all those fingers.
Susan from Food Blogga Oh, Ellie, only you could make burned fingers look adorable! Heal quickly, and let people cook for you! Take care, Susan
Rand Oh my heart goes out to you. I reminds me of the time I had roasted some marshmallows on the top of the gas stove, the burner…with a metal fork…and yup you guessed it…burned my lips really bad…had tine marks for months. It is something you only do once…You will be better soon.
Hendria Burns are not nice at all. Take care. The burn cream is very good it will heal them quickly.
Lynn Oh dear, first the hair, then the fingers. This just hasn’t been a good month for you! I hope you heal up quickly!
Deborah Dowd Ellie, So sorry about your hand. Even the smallest burns hurt like hell. Follow the Drs advice since burns on the hand can easily become infected. Looking forward to your return!
Ellie Thanks for all the wonderful messages folks 
The burns definitely weren’t pleasant, but thankfully they’re almost all healed now…all we can hope is that I’ve learnt something from this experience 
Other than how to dress a burn (>_<)
Ellie, hope you get better soon!
