If you get a blister you are doing it right.

Day one of my basic kitchen skills class.  Ha!  It is so much easier to cut carrots, onions and potatoes when they aren't being measured and inspected.  My instructors were awesome and reminded me that it didn't have to be perfect.  They also informed me that the blister that developed on my right index finger was proof that I was doing it right.   Anyway, I enjoyed being in that class with all those other students. I laughed alot!  Back at it tomorrow bright and early. Tomorrow, more knife cuts, cooking some starches, making some sauces, and hopefully a whole lot of laughing.  Yay Culinary School!!!!
