Keep your Guacamole Green

Want to keep your guacamole green?
Of course you do.

Give this tip a try.

Before you put your guacamole into the refrigerator....


Rub some olive oil onto a sheet of plastic wrap and then press the plastic wrap against the surface of the guacamole.

Put a Magnet on your Thermometer

Inside my oven you are sure to find at least 2 or 3 thermometers.

And...up until now....you could find those thermometers sliding around---face down---and getting caught on the rack in the middle of the oven just when I'm ready to turn my cookie sheets around....UGH!

My oven is very temper-mental...so the thermometers have to stay.


I know that the thermometers come with a hanging device on the top of them, but that makes them get even more in the way than just setting them on the rack.
Has that ever happened to you?

One day, I happened to come across these really strong and cheap magnets..... that I'm using for another project......and the other day it dawned on me that maybe I could use those magnets to keep the thermometers in place.


 WOW! has that made my day or what? Sure wish I had thought of this years ago....geeze.

And even though this thermometer that you see below is not sitting on the rack next to the food that is cooking, like I know it should be..... hanging it on the side wall makes me say, "Brilliant!"

No glue or adhesive is being used with these magnets in place...they're just holding on by the sheer fact that the thermometer is steel and the inside of the oven is steel.

I hope you have some magnets sitting around so that you can also give this tip a try.
