 I don't know if this has been brought up before, but just a word. VINEGAR. 
 Distilled white vinegar. Keep it nearby to help neutralize the lye if need 
 be. It certainly won't help with accidental ingestion, but it may help with 
 burn prevention, or at least help with the severity.

    And if you happen as I do, to have some *lavender* vinegar on hand (Made 
with said distilled white vinegar by a friend who didn't think the type of 
vinegar mattered much....... :-( ), well, lavender oil being useful for 
burns, I would imagine it would be even better!
