I wish somebody would start putting labels on the tops of spice jars. I keep all mine in a drawer and it's a pain in the ass to pull out every bottle - Trish Mar 12, 13:21 19
- I just write on the tops of the jars with a sharpie -- nm - Roger More Mar 12, 13:22
- I use sharpies. Black sharpies for light colored lids, silver sharpie for dark lids. -- nm - loosilu Mar 12, 13:22 10
  - I just did this with all my canned goods - I could never tell what was what when I was looking in the Lazy Susan. - kelly Mar 12, 13:28 2
    - Well, tell Susan to put down your cans and get a job! -- nm - znufrii Mar 12, 13:32 1
      - Or get her ass back to Canada. -- nm - mara Mar 12, 13:35
  - Duh. You (and the others below) are freaking brilliant. I can't believe I never thought about doing that. - Trish Mar 12, 13:26 3
    - you can pretend they're little signing statements -- nm - con_carne Mar 12, 13:27 2
      - "I state that con carne is doody-head" - Trish Mar 12, 13:30 1
        
        *unconstitutional* doody-head -- nm - con_carne Mar 12, 13:32
  - silver sharpies are great -- nm - Beryllium Mar 12, 13:23 2
    - silver sharpie, black post it notes! -- nm - loosilu Mar 12, 13:23 1
      - oooh, shiny! -- nm - znufrii Mar 12, 13:24
- white lid jars and a sharpie. it's what i have on a bunch. -- nm - Andie Mar 12, 13:22
- color-coded stickers -- nm - znufrii Mar 12, 13:21 5
  - or get those magnetic spice jars you stick to the fridge -- nm - znufrii Mar 12, 13:22 4
    - or make a map and go by memory without second-guessing what you pull out of the drawer. -- nm - znufrii Mar 12, 13:26 3
      - that's practical. -- nm - Andie Mar 12, 13:27 2
        
        you should see how znufrii does his spices. - TFox Mar 12, 13:28 1
        
        what is cooking if not a potential for adventure?! :) -- nm - znufrii Mar 12, 13:30
the colour coded cables from monoprice are brilliant. -- nm - Reagen Mar 12, 13:20
