Thanks - I understood that much. I don't actually understand the sentence.
I understand that sartén and cazo are kitchen pots and pans. But "apártate que me tiznas" sounds to me like "get away that you blacken me". ??

You're getting it right, Lou Ann.
Tiznar: to make dirty with soot. Since both pots have been on the stove, they are both sooted; so it's rather senseless that one asks the other to stay away to avoid getting smudged.
