Caribbean Pepper Pot Soup

I made this soup that I think you would like despite the ingredients perhaps not sounding appealing to you guys:

Acorn squash
Red kidney beans
Tomatoes
Coconut milk
Cilantro
Onions
Serrano peppers
And boatload of spices

When making it I made a huge mistake.  When I was cutting the peppers, which happen to be among the hottest peppers available, I did something stupid.  I rubbed my face and eyes. IT HURT SO BAD. My eyes burned.  I couldn't open them without them burning.  I had to stick my head in the shower to rinse them out but it barely helped.  I had to sit with my closed and a wet towel on them for what seemed like forever until the burning stopped.   It was crazy.  I had gramma research online what I was supposed to do - well next time I have to cut those peppers I am wearing gloves - that is for sure.
