Cups - Double Duty Uses in the Camp Kitchen

hello NorCal!

we have a fun project we are working on with the folks over at Overland Gourmet and Adventure Vehicles through Twitter.

the goal is to come up with the most creative, and reasonable, double-duty uses for cups in the camp kitchen. suggestions will be compiled into a blog entry and shared with each other's readers. it's a fun, friendly "competition" so let's hear your experiences with double-dutying them cups!

please provide your suggestions by 8:00 PM PST, Thursday, July 07. i will compile your feedback into a blog entry on NorCal and provide you with links to the Overland Gourmet and Adventure Vehicles blog entries to compare notes.

let's hear those creative ideas and uses!

addendum:

thanks for the creative suggestions! the blog post, Double Duty Uses for Cups - Creativity Challenge, has been written and links to Overland Gourmet's and Adventure Vehicles' parallel entries will be added as soon as they become available.

1 camping cup.

Enough lemon lime Kool-Aid mix for 6-8oz of water

1-2 parts tequila. (perhaps from a flask)

Fill the rest with canteen water.

Stir with a dirty plastic spoon or a stick off the ground. (optional)

1 hand full of cooler ice. (Gives it that hint of packaged hot dog juice... kind of salty.)

Field Margarita!!!

I have a collection of various sized plastic cups, you can put two together to protect small things you dont want crushed in your gear while you are bouncing on the trail. Eyeglasses if you lost your case or whatever you want. Just orient them like a bartender with a martini shaker and a pint glass.
