In The Kitchen with Laura McKenna: Big Game Garbage Trick
Share
This is a trick that will work every time you host a party at your home- whether that be for the big game on Sunday or a holiday gathering.
It never fails at every party- before you know it, the trash is overflowing.
So take a few minutes pre-party to save a ton of time (and messing around) during the party.
Start with your empty trash can and insert a garbage clean bag. Then insert another bag (as if the first one didn’t exist). And do it again. And again. And repeat as many times as you want.
Now flash forward to the party….
When the trash is full, it’s just a quick removal of the full garbage bag and the next is already ready to go! During the entire party, no one has to root around for a clean bag and fight with the can getting it inserted just right.
Plus- here’s a bonus- if something in the top bag leaks, the next bag just catches it. That will save scrubbing out a nasty, sticky garbage can after the party.

Laura McKenna grew up in Ohio and got her first job in radio in La Crosse in 2005. She packed up her stuff, made the move, and has been in Wisconsin ever since! Her favorite season is winter but she loves to spend all summer in her vegetable garden. When she isn’t in her pink kitchen cooking up vegetarian recipes, more than likely she’s taking bubble baths, reading mystery novels (sometimes while in a bubble bath), cheering for THEE Ohio State Buckeyes, or officiating weddings! She married her best friend from college last year but they still don’t live in the same house yet. Laura’s favorite way to spend a Friday night is watching Dateline with her cat (Phil Dawson) on her lap. She’s thrilled to be keeping you company during the workday!
