coffee containers

[Steve & Ellen]

For sometime now I have kept the plastic coffee containers thinking there was something I could do with them. I did stumble across one use. I now use them to store bungee cords and ratchet straps. The ratchet straps need to be neatly coiled to be practical.
FUN FACT....
Oh, yeah...We use Maxwell House. "Good to the last drop". Attributed to Theodore Roosevelt will visiting the Hermitage, home of Andrew Jackson in Nashville, 1917.
A hotel of the same name burned to the ground in Nashville on Christmas night 1961. I witnessed the fire from across the road in another Hotel. My dad had insurance interest in the old hotel and was early on the call list. It was rebuilt, but in name only.

The Country Time containers make excellent storge containers for sugar, flour etc. Plus the lid can measure amounts.

The B&M Boston Baked Bean jar makes an excellent bacon grease storge container(still needs refrigeration though).


Also use the CT container as a means of making your eggs scrambled. Just crack eggs into jar, place lid and shake em up.

Speaking of eggs, one of our favorite ways of making omlets is to put your eggs in a sealable plastic bag with all of your veggies and meats. Seal it up and drop it in a pot of boiling water. Cooks up fast and easy and you can make a couple of them at a time. Not sure if folks here have tried that.

If you come to the CI-CO, that is how we have you make your eggs for the Sunday morning omelet/burrito breakfast buffet. Quite an assembly line production before & after. You choose whether you want to have 'em as eggs or wrapped in a tortilla with salsa, sour cream & cheese.

These are good for teens to make at home, too...no pans to clean up.
