Little Jack’s Corner

I have been sooo off this week!  For one, I thought yesterday morning I had missed this week’s Works for Me Wednesday so I didn’t plan on doing one.  Then last night I spent 30 minutes getting our garbage ready for collection.  And to think, I was so proud of myself for “remembering”!

The bad thing is - yesterday was Tuesday.  Not Wednesday, like I thought…. All. Day. Long.

I got up this morning and noticed Kevin hadn’t taken the garbage out before he left for work (something that never happens).  Then I laughed when I realized my error.   Yep.  The garbage man doesn’t come until Thursday morning. :(  Poor me.

So anyway. 

In my no-longer-confuzzled state, I realized that I still could participate in WFMW (yay!), and began rummaging for some miraculous tip that I could share.

Now, I don’t know about miraculous, but here’s a household tip I “inherited” from my mom.  And, well, it works for me really well.

 There is a type of honey here in the south called “Sue Bee” honey and it comes in the cutest little squeezable plastic bear container.  After the honey is gone, we’ve always kept the little honey bear, washed it out good, and then stored our vinegar in it!  The squeezable bear, with its easy snap top, makes vinegar use very practical!  Just open the little top, dribble some vinegar on your salad or cucumbers, close the top, and WAHLAH! 

Easy, cute, vinegar storage.

The only thing you have to watch out for is that apple cider vinegar is the same color as honey, so you have to pay attention to which bear you grab if you still have another honey-filled bear sitting around.  That’s easily taken care of though if you remove the honey lable and write vinegar on the other bear with a sharpie. 

(We’ve just always been too lazy to do that.)
