Looks like I got a little blister from the parsnips. About 3-4 weeks ago I had two little spots on the back of my left hand that blistered. At the time, I thought it was either splatter from cooking soup, but or contact dermatitis from weeding. Now I have another tiny one, same thing, about 1/4" from one of healed spots. Just looked it up on a web image search and it does look like very minor parsnip burn.

Sounds like it is the sap from a broken stem or leaf, gets on your skin, and then if exposed to sunlight, that causes the irritation. I will have to remember to wash off from now on. Last time the two little spots healed fine, just scrubbing hard with peroxide until they opened. From some of the pics out there, it appears some people must be really allergic to parsnip sap. Thinking about it, it probably happened trying to kill a lantern fly nymph that peeping on the ladybugs.
