Burned the CRAP out of my mouth...

I've been simmering some beef vegetable soup all afternoon. I decided to taste it. It was no longer boiling and I took a little in a small spoon, blew on it, and sipped it out of the spoon. All I could do was blow it back out of my mouth ASAP. I mean, yeah, I've sipped coffee before that was too hot but this was to a whole different level... I have NEVER had anything this hot in my mouth. It got to top of my tongue and the back of my throat. It's been about an hour. I took a spoon of honey, been sipping ice water, and have some single malt on the rocks... any ideas what might help? I don't think I will ba able to taste the soup...
 
The single malt... that is a different thing, new to me. I've never bought any good single malt Scotch whiskey before. I had no idea what I was missing. This is a bit like fine old leather. That may sound weird but it is really good. It is BOWMORE Islay and I recommend it.
 
I am glad that the mouth heals quickly...

lesson learned.... 

I always blow on something hot to cool it a bit.... soup, coffee, hot chocolate,,,,, 

The one that ALWAYS gets me is Pizza.... that hot cheeze on that first bite, it's so good but so hot that it takes the skin off right behind the upper front teeth..... 

Yeah I still haven't learned my lesson on hot pizza.

@ James... True!

@ Herb ... I DID. It was just a little broth in a spoon. I had no idea anything coud be that hot. I shoud have just spit it out but with normal "too hot' you can swallow it, this stuff hit the back of my throat and my body just reacted by spraying it out. My throat  is better still hurts a little, top of tongue is still numb/burned feeling but I don't have any blisters that I can see. I will never assume anything like that again.

@ SC.. Yogurt and fudge pops.

@ LP soft food is good! Coke was to much yesterday, Sprite went down OK.

I think I'll be OK, still sort of coughing but I am not hoarse anymore so I think I dodged a bullet but not completely.

Thanks!!

I feel so ignored...
 
@Guitarhacker - Pizza is the one that gets me too.  It's so much fun to peel skin off the roof of your mouth isn't it?

@ Craig... Hi! No one could ever ignore you.
 
...and yes, pizzahas gotten me before, so has coffee. Usally you can move stuff like pizza around in your mouth, breath around it etc... but man, this really was a whole new level. I can't believe I tried to swallow it. It just didn't even look hot and I blew on it. I am thankful that this didn't get on the roof of my mouth.
 
@ SR, a cold beer sounds good! I may try that. I am on some meds that regulate how much I can drink (pain stuff) I mean, I could drink more but I'd get feeling bad. I consider it to be a blessing in disguise. I can no longer drink so much beer that I wake up naked and outside... that is a change for the better. Once when I was young (in my 20s) I passed out and slept the night on the front steps.. that was one uncomfortable bed. These days I can drink about 4 beers and I'm done... toasty done.
Our wonderful caring government is talking about restricting scrips of narco pain relievers to 90 days except for cancer patients. I will have to become a criminal again if they do that... break out the patchouli incense and the 12 pack again, but I really do not want to have to go there. However chronic pain will make you do something to get relief. Those nice people in Washington don't have a clue. I hope they come to understand.
Sorry to ramble... I tend to do that.
 
How about this: I heard a GREAT quote yesterday. I was watching some recorded episodes of Duck Dynasty and Si.. Si said, "HEY, I am the Michael Jordan of getting on people's nerves". I laughed out loud... he was dead serious. What a hoot.
 
eidted for HEY...
