Coffee Filter Separators

Art just told me that I wrote about this before (I guess I did in 2012), but totally forgot about it.

I'd started separating my Pyrex glass containers with paper towels, little napkins, etc. which aren't pretty.

Then I remembered about the coffee filters.


So I stole borrowed some of Art's filters. Nice! I'd have to get bigger filters for the larger containers though.

Some day.

  1. Guess what, I just learned that it was a woman who invented the coffee filter! Melitta Bentz in 1908! You should think of her every time you see those filters!

  6. Why do I think my Pyrex bowls don't have a problem being stacked? Even the little clack noise doesn't bother me. You separate them because.....? Confused Linda in Kansas

    2. Ok, that's funny. I guess I usually cook with my hearing aids out; one of the rare advantages of a hearing loss. Dripping faucets and clocks ticking too loudly don't bother me either. Quiet in Kansas, Linda (except we're under a tornado watch, not yet a warning.)

  7. I am careless both with glass bowls and pans, I am afraid.

  9. Very good idea, Kay. I like the look of the beige filters, and they are performing a service. I laughed at Anonymous' comment. :-)

  10. With no open shelves, nobody sees my paper towel liners but me.

  11. I try to tell Daisy that there really is no "yours" or "mine" in our house for the most part, unless you count shoes, underwear, most clothes (she likes my shirts), and toothbrushes.

    She's the greedier one of the two of us. She uses the word "mine" more often than I do. As long as she doesn't take the last can of soda, or the last little bag of chips before I can restock, it doesn't matter.

I'm sorry to have to do this, but again... sigh... it's the spam that's driving me crazy.
