Makes A Sharp Point About Safety

(I am notoriously accident prone and, although I like to cook, have really bad luck with knives.)

Me: “Mom, I can’t get this watermelon cut in half! This knife isn’t big enough and the melon is huge. Help me.”

Mom: “Sweetheart, you’re very intelligent. I have a lot of faith in you that you can cut that melon in half. That’s the biggest knife we have.”

Me: “Did you forget which kid I am? I got a knife stuck in an apple once.”

Mom: “I’m coming. Step away from the melon.”
