Please discuss the Hot Pad/Trivet. Tips, complaints, praise, reviews, ideas, thoughts...
 
I love these things! I use them in my refrigerator. I have tempered glass shelves, so when I put something still warm in the fridge I put it on one of the silicone trivets. I like that it's red to match the oven mits.
 
That is a good idea Rae! Thanks for sharing.
