You can put your pre-measured spice in there. I loved the story that someone shared a while ago. I can't remember what month it was. They had a guy propose to the host's daughter. (wait, I might have the relationship wrong there...) But anyway, the guy and the host pre-arranged with the consultant. They wrapped the ring in tissue paper or something and had the soon to be fiance show off the pinch bowl set because it was the guest special that month. It was funny because when she got to the smallest one, she said something like "now what on earth could you put in this one" and that's when the guy came over and got down on his knee. I might have butchered the story.... sorry!
But it was so cute whoever it was that posted it.

When people ask about the smallest bowl, I give them two of my favorite ideas. First, if you take medications it's just the right size for most people to take their day's supply with them. Or, if you take your rings off when you wash dishes (which you should) you can put them in the bowl, snap on the lid, and place it behind the sink or on the window sill. your rings will stay dry and safe.
