Cute useful gadget

I just went to BB&B's website & found THIS one!

It is a combination of a measuring cup & funnel. I think I'll get one.

Looks like a space taker upper to me. Unless you make a lot of batters.

I agree. That funnel spout will make it difficult to store neatly.

It is not just for batters.

It can also be used for things that are dry, such as salt, pepper & other dry spices. It would definitely be handy for refilling the salt & pepper shakers!

The long skinny spout enables you to pour things into containers that have small openings that would otherwise be too small to do it with a spoon.

Just use a small funnel. Cheaper and easier to store.

Funnels come in sets of 3, in different sizes. This item costs about the price of a funnel set. But I'll look when I go back to BB&B.

Can I recommend Big Lots or Walmart?
Note to use that for refilling, you will have to know exactly how much you need to pour into the cup first.

And whatever doesn't fit, it can always be put back into its original container that it came in. Like the little boy I know, I'm smart, as he always says to me. Hah!!

You my dear are trying to justify.
Remember we are trying for less stuff not more stuff.
Rather like this drawer needs organized.
Please do not ask me what all is in it.

 

[GadgetGuy]

You mean like THESE?
I have a place for just about everything!! Hah!!

I DO see lots of measuring cups & spoons.

 

[Cinisajoy]

And on that note I shall go clean out that drawer.

Cinisajoy, get one of THESE! Don't get rid of your stuff just yet!

I got TWO of them.

One is where I keep all my knives, small gadgets & measuring cups & spoons & such.

The other one is where I keep small things that I use with the computer(s). So that nothing gets lost, & when I need something like a food prep tool, I know just where to find it!!

And it's in ORANGE - my favorite color!! Got them from Home Depot, BTW. Hah!!

And please trust me, my friend, I am not about to go back to having another junky apartment!! You have my word on it. I just want a few more things, & that is it!!

 

[Cinisajoy]

I have a Plano tackle box full of metal cookie cutters.

Oh and I love you. Opened that drawer and saw a bug. Everything in it is getting washed.

That a girl!!

The #1 thing that happens with a junky apartment is infestation!! You get roaches, ants, little moths, then rats & mice. I had ALL of that in the old apt!!

The slumlord knew about it, but did little or nothing about it!! These pests have more places to hide in a junky apt. That is one of the reasons that I will never have a junky apt again.
