A clever way to repurpose an everyday item.

Original purpose: Flavoring Mom's meat loaf. Aha! use: Portioning pancake batter with precision―and without the usual mess of transferring batter from the bowl. Squeeze out baby-size or plate-size rounds, or add Mickey Mouse ears to a batch of silver dollars. Reward: Restaurant-worthy flapjacks.
