Howe Springs Fire Department firefighters say a woman at a home on Trails Inn Road in Effingham was lighting a boiled peanut cooker when it sparked a fire Thursday afternoon.
They she suffered first and second degree burns and some of her hair is singed, but she's expected to be ok.
Officials say she was taken by Florence County EMS to the hospital.
Firefighters say apparently there was too much gas flow to the cooker when the woman lit it, sparking the fire.
