Bowl Cozy?..note to include?
 
Is there a cute note or saying that can be included with a gift of bowl cozy's.

If so, please share....Google hasn't been helpful!

Thanks!

I couldn't find anything either and I am not coming up with anything off the top of my head. "Something special to keep your hands cool when your food is hot!"

I too googled.....it was a failure!!

I'm bummed I was hoping there would be something.

Thanks

And a mention of microwaving no more than 2 minutes at a time.

This is a little fabric bowl,
To keep you from being burned,
When your microwaved bowls are hot,
A lesson I have learned.

Just put your bowl in it,
While it's being microwaved.
And from those painful burns,
Your pretty hands will be saved.

This is the poem I got when I first made them. I don't remember where I found it, but it works for me.

I use mine in microwave all the time. It's not for cooking but for reheating, no more then 2 min. If your microwave won't heat foot steaming hot in 2 min then your microwave is low wattage and should be restarted every 2 minutes, not set for 3 or more minutes at a time using the cozy. They are for good for ice cream and drippy grands too.

My good friend sells 100's of these (I am not joking!). I printed a small cute note than she adds to each set. It says 'microwave soup potholder. use for reheating not cooking'. We have tested with 4 and 5 minutes, but we feel it is safer to recommend no more than 3 minutes. Obviously, everything is 100% cotton - no poly anywhere. FYI - my kids love to use them to hold their ice cream bowls!

Lormito, I love your poem. I played around with it some and added these verses. They are not the best but maybe someone can help tweak them.

But be warned
I should be warmed
For 3 minutes or less
So the best I will perform.

But give me something cold
Or a way to help little hands
And I will be there forever
Helping the kids and grands.
