Shot Glass.....A Mother's New Use


I read "Real Simple". They always have ideas for different uses of everyday items. Like line your drawers with dryer sheets. Well my parents visited this week. I don't keep appliances on my counter. I put the toaster in a cabinet and we take it down daily. We use cinnamon sugar often and I've always mixed it in a pastry duster (the thing you'd put powder sugar in to dust on a cake). Well, we needed more and mom and dad used a shot glass! It's tall and thin so it fits well in the cabinet and we, honestly, never use our shot glasses now that we're old and boring. So...viola....a great use for an items that's traditionally used for something entirely different! Other uses for shot glasses that I've implemented this year...holding toothpicks which I use often when dying my frosting. One day we'll be cool again and use the shot glasses, right? Really, who has time for shots?
