Repurposed glassware, I.D.E.A.S

Earlier this month I shared how to clean your repurposed glassware, and now I will share some...

I – inspire, D – develop, E – educate, A – attitude, S – share. As you will read, I have found my meaning to this word.

Last blog I hoped to inspire you all to repurpose your glassware. In this blog, I will tell you how you can take your repurposed glass and develop it into something more which will educate you on this topic, towards creating an exciting attitude to sustainable living and sharing this with others.

Since I love being in the kitchen cooking up a storm it only seems fitting that most of the glassware I repurpose is used for items in my kitchen. Personally, I love making cookies, muesli and so much more. I tend to use my repurposed glassware for storing all these homemade goodies. I also take some of these jars, bottles, etc, and use them for storing things like vinegar and baking soda for when I clean my home.

You can use these I.D.E.A.S too, or you could use them as a glass to drink from. Maybe you want to use them to store your pens on your desk, or you could use them to put some homemade brownies in and give this as a little gift to friends or family. The sky is the limit, let your imagination flow and you will quickly find so many uses for these pieces.

As promised, I do have a little surprise…, it is a recipe that I love, now you might be wondering why I love this recipe so much? Well, it's because not only is it simple to make, but it is crumbly and tastes amazing! Can you guess what it might be? Alright, I won’t keep you guessing anymore, it is...

Peanut butter Cookies

Ingredients

• 1 cup peanut butter (alternatives: sunflower, soy, or pea butter)

Method

• Preheat your oven to 180° C.

• Lined baking trays are not needed, due to the natural oils in the butter.

• Stir the ingredients, you will see it come together quite quickly.

• Take an ice cream scoop or two teaspoons and quenelle the batter onto the tray.

• Place into the oven and bake for 10 minutes.

• Once baked, leave to cool.
