When I drop a glass or a casserole dish, I always listen more than try to stop the fall.
I usually can hear where the big pieces slide to. I get my suction sweeper with the hose and start going over the entire floor inch by inch on my hands and knees. With a very light touch, I can pick up the big pieces and the sweeper gets the rest. This seems extreme, but after it is over I know that I will not step on a piece of glass with bare feet. On another note, the glass usually spreads out in a pattern and you can anticipate where the pieces will be. After a few times of breaking glasses, I only have plastic water glasses in the kitchen. _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark
