A grocery chain where we used to live called Jewel was the closest store so the bags, no matter where they came from was refereed to as a Jewel Bag. The kids all know what to get when we yell through the house, "Hey, will someone bring me a Jewel Bag".
Our youngest daughter, is 10 years old and is constantly asking questions. She is really trying to figure out this big world and fortunately, I am her mother. The poor girl has been confused by so many things because I call something by a name that it is not.
Jewel Bag = any plastic grocery bag
Dollar Bill Store = Any dollar store, if that doesn't narrow it down enough, the color of the sign is used.
There are so many LOL I wonder sometimes if she feels like Nell. We have our own language in this house.
So, back to what I was saying. We have a million uses for plastic bags. We always have so many. Over the summer, we even donated 3 bags of bags to yard sales. That is a lot of plastic. Since the beginning of the year we have been trying to find way to simplify things. Not to have so much clutter and use our home space better to suit our needs or we will have to move into a bigger place.
One of the ways to help us simplify is the 10 Piece Reusable Grocery Bag System by Carry Well. This is a super cool way to cut down on the plastic bags. It completely de-clutter's my kitchen. We just painted and everything in the kitchen a few months ago and it still looks like we have too much going on.
These Bags are really sturdy too. The handles and bags are strong enough to hold the weight of actual groceries. I have been duped before.
It's so simple to store. It all fits in one bag and easily goes into a cabinet or can stay right in the trunk of the car. That way when you get to the store, you don't have to say crap, I forgot my bags, I'll take plastic :)
The strainer I got to review is really cool too. Like very cool. I have never owned one like either one of these.
One is a Snap'N Strain by Kitchen Gizmo. It really clips right on the pan and you don't have to do anything else but drain. It has a silicone edge and clips that fit right to the edge of any pot pretty much. I do have several sized pans that I use depending on the food and portions. This on fits in all of mine. What makes it even more convenient is it fits right into my utensil drawer. I don't have to rifle through the cabinets to find it.
It is so easy to use. It has a flat edge that set right on the inside of the edge of the pot and the clips go right over the edge. I have used it on a few different post and it doesn't matter id it has a lip or a smooth edge, it fits on both. It fits on all of my pans.
The Cone Dripper is awesome for making coffee. Coffee, No pot required, OH No filter Required! This is the most awesome coffee gadget. It is so simple to use.
Add Coffee, Add Water, Let Drip, Drink. It is really easy to clean and really easy to maintain and store.
