282: wives tales

No, I'm not smoking! Yes, this is a terrible picture! I was getting an early start on all the prep work for my dinners next week and thought I'd try the tip I learned from "The Help" about chopping onions and not crying..which was, to put a toothpick in your mouth while cutting. I put a few in and sadly, it didn't work! I've tried wearing glasses, chewing gum, and now toothpicks! I just don't think there's getting out of tears while cutting onions!

Turn the flame on your stove and cut the onions right next to it on then counter...the flame will absorb the onion gases...good luck!
