Both me (compulsively forgets to moisturize), and my wife (moisturized several times a day with hand, body, face lotions) handle most jars with ease.
What gets both of us is little jars. Extracts, or vanilla. Especially alcohol free vanilla! It’s sticky and sticks to the threads of the lid/jar. Even with wiping it down, it’s a problem.
My solution was to wrap the lids in 2242 Electrical tape. Which really helps with getting a grip on it.
Don't even get me started on old honey bottles
Get started on old honey bottles
You know what? I'm doing it!
You're never able to get the freaking honey to pour out correctly, so it INEVITABLY gets on and under the lid
Fast forward 3 years to when my forgetful ass remembers I want honey. I go to the pantry and the bit that leaked out has now willed itself into concrete because I'm just standing there, red-faced, in front of my wife, watching her realize how weak of a person I truly am
The madman did it!!!
Wipe the rim with a damp paper towel before closing it
You like damp paper?
Hot water for honey, softens the crystalized honey in the lid.
Bovril lids catch me out. Especially if you spilt some over the edge last time you used it. Damn thing is practically superglued shut. Even I have to break out the marigolds for that.
I had to search out two separate words in your post. 🇱🇷
(I’m not Liberian, but if I’m going to admit to the “dumb american” trope, I might as well embrace the full caricature - that U.S. citizens keep picking the Liberian flag emoji instead of their own.)
For others: Bovril is like marmite/vegemite, except it’s based on beef. I’m assuming it’s similar to concentrated beef stock paste. Marigolds is a manufacturer of kitchen gloves.
