I am so smatr!

I just burned myself. How? By pouring boiling water on the palm of my hand. Was it an accident? Nope. I was putting a noodle on my hand so I could pop it in my mouth and see if the pasta's done. But I didn't want to grab it in my fingers; that'd be hot! So I poured it into the palm of my hand, out of the large metal spoon I was using to stir. Of course, there was a fair amount of boiling water on the spoon, too. This is why you should always use wooden spoons!
