funny.  it sounds like an invention for people who use letter openers and have dedicated miniature pickle tongs.

  bah- says the person who organized the kitchen drawers this weekend and threw out a whole bunch of shite: candy thermometer (never been used), egg timer (don't boil eggs), rusty knives, and waaaay too many measuring cups and serving spoons.

candy thermometer= used to measure liquids at near thermonuclear temperatures- such as deep frying or cooking syrup for making candy.  And I do neither.

  Cheap measuring cup/spoon sets at StupidStore.  That's why I had too many....

Russ, man... it's like the greatest invention ever invented apart from the tampon.

Devil

yes, what did females do before the tampon?

 It would be like turning up the crankiness up a notch!

Lise

I think they wore cloth (before pads). Lots and lots of cloths. Then wash.

Won 2 coffee's in 2 weeks, odds of winning something big, only good if you are 2 young girls that originally throw the cup away in the dumpster.

P.C.

Winners and Homesense has really nice stainless steel ones if you're looking for a good set, Russ, at a fraction of what the fancy cookware stores charge.  
Sir Isaac Newton invented the swinging door....for the convenience of his cat.

Russ

At winners? I never thought to check there, thanks PC.

  I detest buying at cooking stores. I always end up buying too much and pay too much for little hunks of plastic.

Uhm, what do you have to buy, Russ?

Russ

nothing really important. just need more measuring utensils.

The last set that I owned, I used on fish chemicals so... um, yeah. I cant use them anymore.

Hydrogen Peroxide will disenfect ANYTHING.  Then, you can reuse your measuring spoons/cups again. ;)
