creative uses for a starbucks cup, part 2

In November I wrote a post detailing how we used a Starbucks cup as a funnel for radiator fluid. Well, this post is the sequel!

I am back in Wyoming, now to celebrate Christmas, and last night Mom brought home the ingredients for me to make this brocolli-bacon rigatoni that she loves that I make. We couldn't find a can or glass jar to drain the bacon fat, so we grabbed my Starbucks cup out of the trash (yes i said trash, you can't recycle here in Wyoming), and we poured the bacon fat into the Starbucks cup.

Now there is a cute little Starbucks cup on the counter full of bacon fat. Awesome.

In other news:

• In the Denver airport, the restrooms have signs on them that say "tornado shelter". how reassuring.
• Raspberry vodka, oj, sprite, and grenadine= a little slice of heaven. Maybe I should consider a second career as a bartender?
• Faulkner and I ran 2.5 miles today AND went to the dog park. We're both going to sleep well tonight.
• "The Sing Off" finale is today. Great show, but Nick Lachey is a horrible tv host...

The End!
