Thanks, Michele!

I honestly never knew this! Knew what? Well, just take a look at this e-mail from Michele G. that showed up in my inbox. It's amazing!!

Well, who knew this? I never even looked before! Most of you probably know this already but it was a completely new thing to me!

I've been using aluminum foil for more years than I care to remember. Great stuff, but sometimes it can be a pain. You know, like when you are in the middle of doing something and you try to pull some foil out and the roll comes out of the box. Then you have to put the roll back in the box and start over. The darn roll always comes out at the wrong time.

Well, I would like to share this with you. Yesterday I went to throw out an empty Reynolds foil box and for some reason I turned it and looked at the end of the box. And written on the end it said, Press here to lock end. Right there on the end of the box is a tab to lock the roll in place. How long has this little locking tab been there? I then looked at a generic brand of aluminum foil and it had one, too. I then looked at a box of Saran wrap and it had one too! I can't count the number of times the Saran wrap roll has jumped out when I was trying to cover something up.

I just hope I'm not the only person who didn't know about this.

Well whoever wrote this was not the only person who didn't know!
I just checked mine and low and behold, they all have the tabs to fold in! Look!!
Learn something new everyday, eh? : )


And I too just looked at my foil and seran wrap, and lo and behold! This is going to be *soooo* convenient in the future, you don't even know. Well, I guess you do know now! ;-P
