Famous Death Row Last Meals
Food Fights: The Biggest Culinary Scandals Of 2011
Wine corks. They're something of a troublesome little doodad. There's not much use for them once the bottle has been consumed and yet their substantial feel that makes many of us hesitate before chucking them in the garbage. Some folks turn their cork collections into bulletin boards (with the help of some glue and an empty picture frame) or floor tiles but for others, those projects might feel a bit ambitious. Saturday, while browsing the merchandise at Foster's Homewares here in Philly, I spotted a fun little gizmo that allows you to turn eight wine corks into a trivet, perfect for protecting your dining room table from damaging hot pots and bowls. It's far lower effort than the bulletin board and makes for a fun topic of conversation at your next dinner party. I'm adding it to my list of things I long for (especially since I have a handful of corks leftover from an assortment of holiday celebrations).
