*ACHOO* Ow it hurts :(
So, I went to tidy up my spice cabinet a little while ago. When I made Tibetan curry, I let my friend put the stuff back while I did some other things. Bad idea :P
Anyway, as I was closing up the bag of white pepper, a bunch (and I mean a LOT) shot up my nose. Christ this hurts. Really, REALLY badly.

But, on the upside, my kitchen now smells like curry, cloves and cinnamon :9

Any suggestions for the burning?

7. Try milk
Dip your fingers in in milk and rub it inside your nose and drink some milk, too.
