Sometimes The Solution...
....has been staring you in the face, *begging* to be noticed.
I was pitting cherries this afternoon, prepatory to making Himself's
weekly lunch dessert (cherry crisp) and, as usual, I was chasing pits
all over the kitchen about every third cherry when the light went on:
why don't I, I say to myself, place a paper towel in a bowl and eject
the pits into the bowl instead of the paper towel lying flat on the
counter? Yumpin' Yimminee, plain as the nose on my face.
And as an aside, every time someone finds out I actually pit cherries
instead of using canned ones, they act absolutely bumfuzzled. Yeah,
it's a lot of prep work, but it is *so* much better - and they were on
sale at Albertson's for $1.99 lb.!
