Keep grilled food safe by using
two pairs of tongs. Put red tape
on the tongs that handle raw food
(red for “stop'1) and green tape on
the tongs that touch cooked food
(green for “go”) to remind you not
to touch cooked food with tongs
that have handled raw meat, poultry,
or seafood.

Keep outdoor table settings green
and gorgeous with lightweight
enamel ware. It's nonbreakable,
washable, and affordable. And the
vintage look is fun (find it on eBay).
