bubble, bubble, toil and trouble

I managed to splash boiling water on my face and down my shirt while cooking dinner this evening. My dad told me a story of my great aunt Ona, a woman of formidable build, who once poured an entire pan of boiling water down her girdle. I suppose it could always be worse.

Thank you ciara.. that's very kind! And yes, I am ok. I think I'll have a mark on my chin for a bit but that just gives character, right?
