Reduce, recycle & reuse - another use for single use shower caps

12/8/2016

0 Comments

 
BSFG member and paramedic Jenny often travels overseas, both for pleasure and to volunteer as a paramedic in disaster zones.   Jenny reports discovering a great use for those single use shower caps which are provided in most hotels.  Her idea?  To use them instead of single use cling wrap to cover bowls of left overs etc. in the fridge.  Jenny says they fit well on many bowl sizes and that they remind her of  the durable use plastic covers with elasticized edges her mother used in the fridge.  (I'd forgotten completely about these - and suddenly had a flashback of similar covers in my parents' and grandparents' fridges...) Good thinking, Jenny!
