Do you love camping? I do!
Every time I go camping, I always look forward to the highlight at night: the bonfire. Sitting around the bonfire with friends, roasting marshmallows, singing along to a guitar… it’s all just perfection. Along with the excitement of a bonfire comes the danger of getting burned. Fret no more! If that happens, bring out your home remedy for burns and shoo the pain and burns away!
Even if you are just having a stay-cation at home, this may come in handy when your inner Iron Chef skills awaken and you get a little too close to that open flame on the stove.
