Sat. 07.05.08 - As seen on a walk past by a beach house party. Pink!
A few years ago, my aunt Anne gave me 3 mesh food domes of which to protect any picnic or BBQ food from the terrors of the local bug / fly / wasp society(ies). When I lived in Orange with a real backyard for outdoor entertaining, the mesh food domes were very handy. At the end of the summer, I would pack them away in their drawer.
Until the day I opened the drawer and found mouse droppings all over the unopened food domes. Now out here in the West, we have a wee problem with hantavirus. Most rodents don't carry it, but a few do and those few spread it through their droppings. Thus, the lovely little white food domes found themselves in the trash, along with the mouse droppings. I did not tell my roommate and I washed out the drawers with a bleach solution.
Fast forward to yesterday's Fourth of July BBQ party in the breezeway of my apartment building, I had no lovely little food domes to put over the meat, fish, and salads while we ate all the while keeping the option for seconds open.
Today, while on a walk, I spied these fabulous pink & flowered food domes on a picnic table, which reminded me that I need to get some more food domes and store them in the upper tall cupboards where the mice can't tread.
where do I buy these - they are adorable - need several - what sizes are they??
hi Candi! we wish we knew where to get them -- if we did, we would both own a set now. extensive googling for mesh food covers did not yield any happy results. however, if we ever find out we'll be sure to let you know!
