Reply #15: I miss some of my old Tupperware.

I used to have a round flat one that perfectly held a batch of oatmeal cookies.

Last year I found some of those things people used eons ago -- bowl covers. Elasticized 'round the edge, in varied sizes. Colorful, too. They came in a set of about half a dozen at a local Rite-Aid. I really like those for leftovers, cuz no separate container, bowl, lid whatever are required.

Dry stuff like coconut, raisins, brown sugar, rices, etc. all go in ziploc bags, stored in a cart with drawers that goes under the kitchen worktable.

I keep the jars from Better Than Bouillon -- they have a really nice metal lid and are a nice size. I use those for seeds, some spices, etc.

I just have accumulated a bunch of baby food jars (from feeding Gerbers to my ailing senior kitty). I'm happy to have those for spices, too.

That leaves large batch stuff in the fridge -- a whole other problem. I've been thinking about getting some glass refrigerator dishes that can go to microwave. They used to have glass tops. Do they still?
