"Just because you've always done it that way doesn't mean it's not incredibly stupid."

Which one are You?

Don't ask why!

Yogurt, Aloe Vera or Cling Film?

Following on from my last post, you will be pleased to hear that Messy Church went very well indeed.

Unfortunately, I burnt myself on the oven and so next time will be wearing something similar to the picture opposite.

Lots of advice as to what I should do to minimise the after effects of the burn. It was run under freezing cold water for two lots of 5 minutes, it had a pack of frozen onions placed on it until I started to smell like a burger bar. Butter and yogurt were suggested!!!! Things were starting to resemble the beginnings of a night at the curry house (onions, yogurt, butter......!!)

A friend kindly went home to cut the branches off her Aloe Vera plant so I could rub the sap into the burn. Apparently, her plant did not sacrifice itself in vain, this seemed to work.

Someone else suggested I wrap the burn in cling film. But I have to say that just reminded me of the clip in the Full Monty and so I declined that advice.

You will be pleased to know the burn has gone down quite a bit. No blistering, although the heat from my arm could give the oven a run for it's money!!
