Sunny could hold a hot coal in her bare hand, and though you heard a sizzle and smelled that barbecue smell, when she put it down the skin was soft and perfect. You had to take care, living with Sunny. She might hand you a dish straight from the oven

One two three ways to get messed up, none of which I advise.
