Re: just a little tip!

You just reminded me of years ago when I made some jellies in those kraft margarine tubs and took them on a picnic. We had them on the back shelf in the car and parked up and forgot about them! It was a hot day and when we got back to the car after our picnic we had some nice warm orange drinks waiting for us!

Re: just a little tip!

Ive one in the fridge for storing my cheese in. Then use the others for when i make bolognese sauce - if i dont use it all in two days stick the rest in a tub and stick it in the freezer. Spug uses his for soups/curries he makes and sticks them in the freezer. Also use them for transporting stuff to other places.
