corn on the cobzorb

my favorite part of the summer is food! ralph's italian ices, fresh long island corn on the cob and fried chicken to eat on the beach watching the sunset over the atlantic ocean. sometimes though, cooking the chicken can cause quite an oily mess. since I don't have a car that I can convert the oil to run on, I thought this doo-dad was something helpful to keep in the kitchen.

what's in a name?
