Instead of personality quizzes today, let's talk about obvious things we might just not be aware of.
Here's an example from a friend's email forward that I've changed some:
I really did have to go check this out for myself after reading it. You know when you try to pull aluminum foil off to cover a pot or dish, and the whole roll comes tumbling out of the box and unrolls on the floor? Then you have to try to roll it back up into the box and it's all crinkly. It doesn't have to be like that!
If you look at the end of the box, written plainly (for anyone who'd ever think to look there) to see, it says, "Press here to lock end." In that same location, there's a tab for locking the roll into place. I wondered, has this nifty locking mechanism always been here? Why have I never seen it before? Why isn't this pointed out in Reynold's Wrap commercials? Even the store brand foils have this contraption.
Guess what else? So does Saran Wrap! I can't tell ya how many times I've made a gummed up mess out of a roll of cling wrap, which mostly only sticks to me or itself instead of the intended item.
Do me a favor...please tell me I'm not the only one who didn't know this. Lie if you have to. And share any other kitchen secrets you might be selfishly keeping to yourself.
One last thing -- why would someone leave this UFO (Unusable Flippin' Object) in my fridge? {We may need to explore this more deeply in coming posts.}
