Had a guest recently tell me that she and her husband put a clean dry towel in their DCB and warm it in the microwave. It is all warm and ready for them when they come out of the hot tub!! :sing:

Wonder if I can get a hot tub and write it off as a PC expense..tell the auditor that it was to try out this new use. Ok...guess that one is far fetched!! LOL!:D
 
That is quite funny actually! I couldn't imagine carrying my warm DCB all the way upstairs to my bathroom just to have a warm towel. :D Maybe if the master bath was on the same level... ;)
 
I'd carry it down the street for a warm towel ;)

Right now with the heat we have had, I wouldn't take a warm towel for all the tea in China, but she meant the idea for the hot tub that is probably on a deck right off the kitchen!
 
Hi there! That is such a creative use for the Deep Covered Baker! I love hearing about all the different ways people use our products. However, I wouldn't recommend putting a towel in the DCB and warming it in the microwave as it could potentially damage the product and cause a fire hazard. Safety always comes first! As for writing off a hot tub as a PC expense, I'm afraid that might be a bit of a stretch. But hey, it never hurts to try! ;) Thanks for sharing your fun idea!
