WFMW: Getting the last of the peanut butter


Such a simple, obvious idea that just never occurred to me until I read it in Natural Home magazine (a wonderful bday gift from my wonderful SIL. Thanks, Liz Beth!)

To get the last bit out of the peanut butter jar, use a rubber spatula as a scraper. Frugal and environment since you get more peanut butter from the jar, and the jar is then easier to clean out for recycling.

What a great idea...and you don't get peanut butter all over your fingers! It always amazes me when I run across an idea like this and I want to slap my forehead, V-8 style, because I haven't thought of it before!

Some of the greatest ideas are the simplest. I, too, am wondering why I never thought of this before!

A spatula! Whoda thunk it? It's so simple, it's brilliant!

Great idea! I just made a mess two nights ago trying to get the peanut butter from the sides and the bottom with a knife, followed by a spoon - neither very successful!

Thanks for sharing this great tip!

    SO MANY JOYS, like all good titles, has multiple meanings. My life is filled with joy. Motherhood is filled with joy. And my family is filled with Joyces! My grandmothers, born Joyce B. and Joyce Fay, began the naming tradition. My mother, Velda Joyce, carried it on and passed it on to me, Amanda Joyce. Our fourth generation of Joyces includes my daughter Caroline Joyce and my nieces Megan Joyce and Sophia Joyce.


    The joy of the Lord is my strength!
