The not-so-good side of tea

I had a little mishap yesterday. I was making a pot of Upton's Christmas Blend when my hand jerked and I ended up spilling a teapot full of hot water over my right hand.
Yeee-ouch!
On the bright side, I now know ointment really does soothe a minor burn. The bad side is that I have two really tingly fingers that I use the most on the hand I use the most.
And a new-found appreciation for the dangers of boiling water.
I'll be using the Keurig a lot over the next few days!

  2. Yup! My fingertips are pink but it doesn't hurt anymore. I've just been kicking myself for being so clumsy - if I hadn't filled the pot up so much, it wouldn't have happened. Yet another advantage of the Keurig - the water never gets that hot!
