A Greasy Situation

It's funny how we all have our little tricks for this and that around the house.  My mother-in-law saves a coffee can under the kitchen sink to collect cooking grease.  She stayed at our house and looked under the sink... and found...NO COFFEE CAN!

She was thrown for a loop.  I giggled because it takes a heck of a lot more to throw me for a loop (but I digress).

Anyway, we had to describe step-by-step how we handle  "greasy situations" around our house.

Line a bowl with foil:

Pour in grease:
 Place in fridge:
Nice and solid...
 Make a little package and throw away!
Yep, rocket science.

  1. I saw this on Pinterest and started doing it because we live out in the country on septic and I can't put grease down the drain. It is great and works every time!

  5. The Princess of Everything is a woman after my own heart - bacon grease makes green beans, cabbage, and just about every other veggie taste amazing and it only takes a tiny amount...bacon grease also makes cornbread and scrambled eggs delish. I keep mine in an old coffee cup in the fridge and use it whenever I think olive oil or butter just won't do...

  6. In Denmark we buy milk in some kind of cardcarton (don´t know the right word for it - Hard paper "bottles") - Those are perfect for greasy stuff - Just put the grease in the carton, leave it for some hours, and then throw it in the trashbin. Do you have something like that in US?
