So, I swiveled, reached for the iron, it was turned around backwards and I burned 4 pads on my left fingers (not thumb)! After a few choice words, I ran to the bathroom and ran under cold water for 5 min. Got the most beautiful blisters you ever saw! :XD: But do you think that stopped me? Uhhh...NO! Made some cute little gifts, will post pics tomorrow, so stay tuned..for those of you in TX, bundle up! Mr. Icicle is bearing his teeth again! No worky tommorrow! Yeah!!!!
in the doctor's column in our paper, several people have been singing the praises of cold yellow mustard on burns. Tonight my finger slipped off my hot pad and got burned on the oven rack. I immediately put mustard on it--wrapped in a paper towel for a few minutes. What should now be a blistered fingertip is normal. Can't believe I burned it.
