Buy plastic wine glasses big enuf to hold a beer. We use them around the fire pit for all drinks so if a kid or a doggo gets too excited about s’mores or a weenie roast it is just a spill and not a catastrophe.
Did someone say PARTY? 🥳
Another tip when transporting more than one dish in a carrier like the one you used is place a wire cookie cooling rack over the bottom dish then put another dish on top. If you have room for another, just repeat. ..
Excellent idea!!!
love my cutting board trays
You had me at plastic wine glasses. I have teenage boys and as a Wine Mom if I had a nickel for every time one of the kids dumped a thing in the sink and I heard the telltale “smash” of my stemware shattering ….because I was too lazy to RINSE it off for twelve seconds…. I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot but isn’t it weird that my kids Phineas and Ferb memes have stealthily crept into my YouTube comments?
I wanna know what those are 1:19!
I use a collapsible cooler in my car for groceries, milk, meat, etc.
I have used the silicone mats for years and they come in other sizes too! They’re great!
Love the griddle as a warmer idea!!
For the frozen punch ring, instead of using water with the fruit, use fruit juice. That way, your punch does not get watered down. 😊
Makes a lot more sense.
YES, the TV Dinner Trays — oh, childhood memories!😂
I use my old cake lid a a splatter shield in the micro.
Plastic and heat don’t go together…
@jennifer1329 It works, relax Karen.
Love these ideas 😁
I received a set of 4 silicone mats as a gift several years ago. They are incredible. And there are unlimited numbers of uses you will find for them. Fantastic to use in the cookie sheets!
My favorite use for my silicone mats is to place one under the Crock-Pot, rice cooker, etc. on the shelves while using them. I like that they are a heat barrier, necessary or not.
I need to see a Nacho Bundt pan video

Never thought to use my griddle as a warmer!!!! I was actually thinking about ordering a warmer. Thank you for the 💵 saving tip!!!!
