I have no pantry of any kind, so I have shelves in the basement. The plastic...I confess that while I am the only one putting it away, I am often too lazy to click everything together. :( But I also quickly get irritated at the way all the pieces hurtle out of the cabinet, and usually once a week I will get the step ladder to corral the pieces and start clicking.<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13391196534212697503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7401530095917184413.post-54330023625722643692013-02-05T12:19:30.289-06:002013-02-05T12:19:30.289-06:00I attempted to check out your kitchen and it told ...I attempted to check out your kitchen and it told me the page didn't exist. I'll do a larger search on your site to find it.<br /><br />Actually I have gotten rid of excess. I have those snapfit containers which as I noted are a leaky disappointment. Then I have the odd container that serves a specific purpose...like a tall canister style piece of Rubbermaid that I "ferment" starters in...it's tall so the starter can bubble up without flowing over. I have 2 divided plates for the hubs to use for lunches. I don't buy margarine and cool whip bowls are kind of flimsy.<br /><br />I DO use larger ice cream bucket containers, but I try to store them in my basement shelving. I find them excellent for sending left overs home with the kids or taking soup to a tired out or ill momma in my Bible study group.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13391196534212697503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7401530095917184413.post-72511766351891198372013-02-05T12:12:23.652-06:002013-02-05T12:12:23.652-06:00I have seriously considered the same thing Stacy. ...I have seriously considered the same thing Stacy. In fact, I recall I once froze soup in a ziplock bag while it sat in a bowl. When I decided to use the soup, I cut away the plastic and it fit perfectly into a bowl for defrost and reheating. No awkward square edges to try to fit into a pan or bowl.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13391196534212697503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7401530095917184413.post-37942544032386188652013-02-05T12:09:17.436-06:002013-02-05T12:09:17.436-06:00Ha!

What isn't seen is another bottom corner counter with 2 doors and a narrow set of drawers next to the fridge and a tiny pantry.<br /><br />At the risk of sounding like a heretic, might I suggest you simply get rid of the extras? There are only 2 people in your house. Do you REALLY need that many containers? Also, just say no to the margarine tubs and cool whip bowls! You'll feel a lot better without the aggravation of stuff falling out all the time.

If my daughter puts the clean containers away she just tosses them in. If either she or my husband dig around for a container...they aren't about to take the time to stack things back up nice and neat. I am contemplating putting ALL leftovers, don't care if it's soup, into ziplock bags. X-PStacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06316595488903619354noreply@blogger.com
