Ok ... now that Pinterest http://pinterest.com/ has taken the world by storm I am determined to not only try some of the suggested crafts, projects, tip, recipes but to also write about them.

The first tip that I tried was this one ... http://i.imgur.com/GfHeq.jpg  so I was initially excited by a way to preserve food without using chip/bread clips, or twist ties, or transferring to a tupperware or other container.
Also, on the surface it seemed that I would be able to take the lid off, pour out the contents, quick, easy, and most importantly, CUTE!

So, the reality of the situation is very little of the above.

So step 1) obtaining an old water bottle with which to work - easy obtaining one and the precise moment that you want to do this project may require a little more effort, at the very least downing a bottle of water really quick so that you have something to cute.

Step 2) Cutting the bottle in the above pictured shape - requires minimal effort, but effort none the less. More effort at least that would is required to snap on a bread clip or to pour in a tupperware container

So that is it, 2 steps. not a huge deal, but I am left to wonder really what is the point. Why not just grab a twist tie or clip and be done with it.
