I was out and about yesterday when I decided to stop for a coffee and a bite to eat in my favourite cafe the Black Pepper. Here I was sipping on my small late - Angelo the Italian owner makes very good coffee; one of my good reasons for patronising this place, when my breakfast wrap was brought to the table.
The day was chilly and I had had a small breakfast of fruit so I needed and wanted something hot and wholesome to eat for lunch. I was hungry and just felt like a toasted wrap full of egg, bacon with a hash brown. Decadent I know but I was hungry! In hindsight, which is a very good thing, I should have finished my coffee while the food had time to cool down. It looked and smelled delicious and impulsively bit into the wrap.
Oh my, the hot mouthful burning the top of my mouth was terrible. My reflex kicked in and I politely spit it out quick. No-one was taking any notice of me in the cafe; everyone was far too busy talking. Ice is an excellent antidote to burned mouths and sadly I did not have any. The glass of water was not cold enough. There was no option other than to finished my late while the wrap was cooling. I did this and then nibbled gently on a now warm toasted breakfast wrap.

When I eventually arrived home after a 30 minute drive I sucked on a piece of ice which relieved the burning. But did not miraculously take away the injury. My new saying when hot food is delivered to my table at the Black Pepper.
Goodbye from me and have a happy day
