I can report that the Ghirardelli brownie mix is not nearly as good as Grandma’s brownies!!!!!

Joe is right – I unassumingly boast that “I have never met a jar that I can’t open.”
I will now share my secret. If one of three openers doesn’t work, rubber gizmo, turner with a red handle, or kitchen shears (if it is small) then I tap it gently on the tile floor (three times) and run it quickly under the instant hot water. Seldom necessary to repeat the process. Then I don’t have to bother Grampa.
