Helpful Hints

Sometimes those little tips in the kitchen make all the difference.  I can certainly use all the help I can get.  Here are a few ideas:

1.After cooking bacon or ground beef, soak the leftover grease with a slice of bread, then just discard  the bread.
2.When taking a dish and serving utensils to a get together, stick an address label on the dish and utensil to  insure it makes it home with you.
3.Out of toothpicks to test the doneness of that cake or cupcake?  Use a piece of uncooked spaghetti. Now that is clever! 
4. I love this one.  To transport deviled eggs a little easier, place the egg halves individually in paper muffin cups.  Easy to carry and easier to eat.

    I love the tips. I wish I had known about the deviled eggs tip. it would have helped me out on New's Years Eve and my eggs wouldn't have turned out all mushed up together. :)
