In the mean time, I thought I'd share a quick post on my new favorite gadget. I love gadgets. But even more than gadgets, I love finding a new use for them. Working with dough means sprinkling a lot of flour on your workspace and the dough itself. It also means it ends up everywhere and a lot goes to waste. I've been using this mesh sugar shaker to sprinkle the flour and it works great! It really helps keep the flour contained to my workspace and when my hands are wet, I don't have to worry about drying them and 'caking' up the flour.
I found this one at World Market for under $5.


Look how beautifully and evenly it spreads the flour. Yes, I'm a little OCD, just a little. :)
