I think it's time to buy an immersion blender!

When am I ever going to learn my lesson when it comes to heat combustion and blender explosions? I made potato soup tonight and started blending it in batches immediately after pulling it off the stove (so, in other words, it was boiling). SO, I'm on the third batch, the first two weren't pushing the top of the blender too badly because I guess I hadn't filled it too much, but then I get to the third batch and wasn't holding on to the lid as tight as I should have (apparently got too confident) and it exploded EVERYWHERE, including in my eyeball. So, I screamed bloody murder and thought my eye was going to melt or my contact was going to melt IN my eye. Well, it didn't melt and neither did my contact, but it was throbbing for about 20 minutes and I had to clean up the huge mess I made.

I decided that I am the female version of Tim the Toolman Taylor... keeps life interesting I guess.
