Pretty Scar

If you've had the misfortune to see or talk to me in the last week, I've probably told you/shown you my burn scar. I love this scar! It's my first -- but not my last -- baking burn scar. I was baking salty oat, brown sugar, bittersweet, semi-sweet brown cookies and accidently hit the edge of the baking sheet with my right forearm. It didn't hurt at the time. The next day, it was there -- this slightly curved, maroon colored line that was slightly raised. I don't know why I love this injury so much. The shape -- like a tall stalk bending to a strong wind -- maybe? Or maybe because it was doing something a really enjoyed! My camera's not the greatest, but you get the point. It's fading now, though.
