For future reference, as it is too late to work now: Make a paste of meat tenderizer and water, heap onto the welt. Should take the sting right out. No meat tenderizer? Use baking soda. Works, too.
A little piece of advice from someone in the know!
Oh yeah, I knew about that. But I was saving keystrokes as at the time I was in pain and hadn't thought to call my neighbor downstairs to see if SHE had meat tenderizer, as I couldn't find mine. Apparently toothpaste and deodorant (the aluminum) also work.
Another tidbit: bees are more agressive in the fall b/c all the flowers are dying...
I'm a work in progress librarian. I love books, Jesus, and apple strudel. I've traveled the world only to discover that I adore Pittsburgh, PA. I attempt most days to work out my life with fear and trembling. I write about books, shoes, Carrie Bradshaw, and an occasional post about the Psalms. I also have a dark side, so watch out!
