Der Onkel meines Mannes verwendete diese 5l Gläser in seiner Konditorei und bewahrte darin seine Backmischungen auf, die er heimlich in der Nacht zusammen mischte, damit ihm niemand seine Rezepte klaute. Nicht mal die Angestellten wussten die Zusammensetzung der süßen Köstlichkeiten. Sachertorte: 300g dunkle Backmischung + Milch und Eier. Klappte immer, die Konditorei war weithin bekannt und beliebt. Die Rezepte nahm er mit ins Grab, Aufzeichnungen gab es keine.
Naja, viele dieser Gläser in weiß und grün stehen noch herum und werden auch immer wieder zum Sammeln von Sachen benutzt.
That's the point: At the end of each week write a note on a piece of paper, what was good and great in this week (with date). Collect the notes in a glass or box and at New Years Eve read them. Helps definitely against year-end-blues and you get in a good mood for the new year.
My husband's uncle used this 5l glasses (1,32 gal) in his pastry shop and preserved his baking mixes in them, which he secretly mixed together at night, so no one could steal his recipes. Not even the staff knew the composition of the sweet delicacies. Sacher cake (the most famous Austrian cake): 300g dark baking mix + milk and eggs. Always worked out, the pastry was well known and popular. He took the recipes to the grave, there were no records.
Well, many of these glasses in white and green are still around and also be used repeatedly for collecting things.
