Now that sounds like something to me - I'm really lukewarm (try cold)
about the Tater Mitts. Using a conventional paring knife is what's
painful, since the problem is with my index and middle fingers, which
won't take any pressure. Obviously, they're the ones used the most.
I'll look for something similar to the one you describe. Thank you!
