the scar. I was making iced tea the "old fashioned" way where you boil 4 quarts of water on the stove, add tea bags, and let sit for a couple hours. Well, I went to turn off the boiling water, tripped over my 20-pound cat, hit the handle of the pan and the 4 quarts of boiling water went all over my leg (missing the cat of course)...thankfully it was just water so it didn't stick to the skin, but the skin started coming off immediately. We lived in a 2 story house, and the ask a nurse person told me to get in the tub with cool water to stop the burning...ever try to hop up stairs on 1 leg?!! Ended up with 2nd degree burns on thigh. OUCH. Needless to say, I have one of those new iced tea makers that uses cold water to make the tea!!! |
