Of oil and grounds.

Two questions for my fellow hungries:

First - how do you save your used frying oil? My mom had this awesome canister when we were growing up that was made out of some metal and it had a lid but right under the lid it had a sieve so when you would pour the cooled off oil it would strain it.

Second - does anyone know how you can reuse used coffee grounds? I make coffee every morning and I read somewhere that it's good to use it as part of your plant food - any clues?

Coffee grounds are great for your rose bushes, and of course you can just put them in your compost pile. Starbucks gives away the used grounds, too.

My in-laws also save, wash and crumble eggshells for use in the garden.
