Maybe one day I will find something that is more “green” to use.  I’m sure it is out there.  Right now?  The easier the better.  And since we’ve gone to a dual-mode kitchen, I’ve begun to use up a lot of surface cleaners, food wraps, baking dish liners, and anything that will separate gluten from surface.  And now?  I think I’m in love.

It all started innocently enough:  remember the crumbled balls of silver stuff at the end of the television’s rabbit ears?  Yup.  Those were the days, baby.

Then I learned to barbeque in my 20′s.  I started getting excited to use this most amazing of heat conductors to steam veggies on the grill.  And strangely, you can touch the stuff, as long as it isn’t in contact with something hot, and not get burned.   Who can resist that, I ask you?

And now, I’m afraid I’m hooked, line and sinker.    Ever tried to scrub a cookie sheet until it shined?  Have you gotten your convection oven tray sparkling clean?  My point exactly.  Aluminium foil lines cookware, protects surfaces, and makes messy jobs easier.  it’s my knight in shining armor. 

J’adore la Tin Foil.

PS – Happy Thanksgiving to us, Canadians!
