Hi All,Just came across an interesting website from Yahoo! - yes, that Yahoo!. The title of the article is '14 Surprising Uses For Your Microwave'. My faves are #1 (Disinfecting and Deodorizing Sponges), #8 (Heating Up Health Aids like gel packs), and #13 (Toasting Nuts and Bread Crumbs)...
Cool stuff to be sure - and this gives me a smooth segueway into discussing websites that cover 'offbeat uses of daily kitchen products'. Read on dear reader!
From a website called 'The Kitchn' comes this entry called '4 Unexpected Uses For Kitchen Tongs'. And from a website called Care2 comes another entry...this one is titled, '33 Other Ways to Use Single-Use Kitchen Appliances'. Very clever - especially the 'waffle calzone'....
Finally, there is a whole book - which can be purchased from Amazon.com - entitled 'Joey Green's Encyclopedia of Offbeat Uses For Brand Name Products'. Click on the title in the previous sentence to go to the Amazon page for the book. Finally, click on this link to go to the Farmingdale library card catalog that connects to Joey Green's book titled, 'Joey Green's Mealtime Magic: More Than 250 Offbeat Recipes Using Beloved Brand-Name Products'. Who knew!!!
Enjoy the sites - you'll probably never look at kitchen appliances the same way again!
