Caffeinated Traction

[plumtreeblossom]

I had to shovel a patch of the balcony, but the resulting cleared spot was dangerously slippery and needed something for traction. I didn't have any sand, nor enough table salt, and the idea of cat litter and its clay mess was too gross. But what I did have was spent coffee grounds, so I spread them around. They worked really well. Biodegradable, too. For a larger area I guess you'd have to buy some cheap ground coffee to add, since the grounds from the coffee pot only go so far.

And now to take a hammer to the ice slick at the end of our driveway.
