1 ENTERTAINING - Keep the Bubbles in Your Bubbly
Champagne, like its bubbles, is fleeting and effervescent. It doesn't take long until an opened bottle falls flat. If you happen to have leftover bubbly on New Year's Eve, slide the handle of a spoon into the top of the bottle before putting it in the fridge.
The metal spoon won't exactly replace the cork, but it'll keep air in the neck cold and act as an obstacle for the escaping carbon dioxide (that's what makes champagne frothy) for a night. It'll be as fizzy in morning mimosas as it was for your midnight toast.
