little trick

I had a bottle of apple spritzer from Apollinaris in my fridge. I was introduced to this little treat by a high maintenance friend of mine. It's labeled "the queen of table water". So I couldn't open the metal twist cap with my little highly moisterized hands. I hit it with a knife a few times but it still wouldn't come off.
So I went for something else. You may or may not have seen these shoe inserts but there are clear rubbery shoe inserts to pad the ball of your foot in high heals. They look like silicone and are slightly sticky to stay in place. Being high maintenance, I have a collection of 3 pairs of varying shapes for different shoes. All clean of course, ready for the next wearing.
It did the trick. Came right open. Cheers!
