Gap Cap

How many wonderful photos, cartoons, fortune cookie prophecies and other incunabula have fallen down the narrow gap between my refrigerator and kitchen counter over the years?

You lift a magnet for just a sec to find the Domino's Pizza phone number and before you can say Bob's your uncle, another treasure takes a swan dive.

Must be a veritable time machine down there amongst the dust bunnies, raisins, coffee beans and goodness knows what else has gone to ground.

Never again.

That's right: I'm just saying no [more].

You can too with a Gap Cap.

From the website:

Gap Caps

This long metal strip is for one purpose only: beautifully filling that gap between your counter and stove.

It's aluminum, with a long refrigerator-type magnet hidden inside to grip your stove's edge.

It adjusts easily and pops off for cleaning.

20-1/2"L x 1-1/2"W.

-----------------------

Sure, they say it's for the space between your stove and counter but I'll bet you it'll mind the gap by my fridge quite nicely.

Full disclosure: I went wild.

I remember reading how Jackie O, when she found a sweater she liked, would buy one in every color so I pulled a Jackie O and bought three Gap Caps, one each in almond, aluminum and white.

I figure I'll use the one that looks best and then auction off the other two on eBay for an exorbitant amount of money.

Or maybe I'll offer them as prizes in some brain-dead contest I've yet to think up.

Stay tuned.

Gap Caps cost $2.29.
