    Great idea -- I found out about coffee grounds accidentally myself & usually forget about it! =) Thanks for the reminder.

     A note of caution tho -- it can clog drains so don't dump down sink!

    Good point. The grounds can be composted, though. I understand some plants love having coffee grounds applied directly to their soil (don't know which ones, though), so the coffee grounds can do triple-duty: making coffee, clearing up smells, and garden-work!
