Favorite "alternate use" for a kitchen tool?

HA! this made me LOL. You better knock on some wood girl---it's been awhile, hasn't it?

I use tin cans with both end lids removed to shape towers of food items. I've also used them to

form circles of alternative colours of soup in a bowl..........I pour one variety of soup into the centered can and then pour the other soup around it, then gently lift out the can. Can also work with cookie cutters of different shapes as long as the soup is shallow.

bamboo skewers for testing deep bundt cakes and for poking canned goods to let out air before

putting on the lids and placing in canner.

I thought that's what kitchen tongs were for smileys/smile.gif

 

[angak]

I hope you all are safe from the fires!

 

[angak]

oh yes, my favorite reaching tool.

 

[sylvia]

I use tongs for that purpose as well.

I thought that was what the broom handle was for.

 

[shaun-in-to]

Broom handles are for stirring polenta. Or was that the hockey stick?

 

[patbastrop]

MAN!! Whip me up then throw me down! Next trip. Hey! Congrats to your DD!!!

 

[marilynfl]

cheezz...I think you missed the recipe step that said to DEFROST the margohooties.

 

[pat-nocal]

Whatever stick is the handiest, is what I say.

 

[pat-nocal]

hmmm, waitaminute, that doesn't sound quite right.

ROTFL...OK, that's it. I nominate you, Marilyn, as our "FK Humorist" to

come in at the end of the day and do smile mop up for us. It's good to go to bed on.
