Tuesday's tip o' the day...burns

I'm a klutz sometimes. 

And I like to cook.

And I work as a barista (I make coffee).

So I burn myself, often.

And when I do, I have a surefire technique to not blister or sting.   My old boss, Candy, had a remedy for everything and this was one of her.

Immediately after you burn yourself, instead of running the burn under water, run the cold water over a black tea bag.  Apply the cold tea bag to the burn, rewetting it as necessary, until the sting is gone.


Just a little tip, from a girl who has been there and done that too many times!

Tuesday's Tip o' the Week

This is a new feature that I've decided to add to the blog.  It seems like I know all kinds of random crap  stuff.  Once a week I'll share some of that knowledge that I've acquired in the few decades that I've been around.


Tip of the week:
When you eat your oranges to help keep you healthy this time of year, save the peels in a jar in the fridge.  Add them to a pot of simmering water on the stove with a cinnamon stick to make your house smell super yummy.

And when you wonder why you're craving cinnamon rolls.... don't blame me! 


Enjoy!
