A word of warning for those of you like me who prefer to walk around barefoot or in sandals
Yesterday I dropped an entire crockpot of boiling liquid russian fudge.
As you can understand, I jumped away as quick as I could, but the burns I got knocked my breath away and I was very happy to be in the house of a registered nurse and a nursing student. I was having boiling sugar showered off my feet within less than five seconds, literally.
Because of that, I only had four burns bad enough to blister, but to say that I've been comfortable in the last 24 hours is an understatement.
I can only imagine it would be worse with something that isn't water soluable (oil) and would stick to the skin, as well as chemical burns (lye) on top.
So please, wear closed toed shoes. For your own safety.
Cheers
Deb
