Its great when you can repurpose items like the Cool Whip container turned cake tote!

I have truly been educated today!!!!!!! I LOVE that idea of putting them on the pot lids! That makes SO much sense. And speaking of making a lot of sense....sounds to me like Big Sis has a lot of it!!! What a great idea! I don't think I'll be putting so many of those Cool Whip bowls in the recycle bin now! This is a great idea because I, too, hate it when the plastic wrap wipes all the icing off of my piece of cake. Old Cool Whip containers are a great idea and FREE...can't beat that!!!<br /><br />Have a great weekend, and thanks for the tips!Alycia Nicholshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14690591304562176674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5192933728957013758.post-67770758233972289772013-04-03T21:54:23.515-04:002013-04-03T21:54:23.515-04:00You are brilliant!

I have broken and tossed more chip clips so now I just fold the bag over a couple of times and put a bit lose one around it. It's so hard for me to say "rubber band". In Good Ole Boston they are called elastics. ; }Bunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03672695141031447916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5192933728957013758.post-67914282838879663322013-04-03T20:07:02.450-04:002013-04-03T20:07:02.450-04:00Hi Rhett, You are right rubber bands can be used f...Hi Rhett, You are right rubber bands can be used for a lot of things. I used them to hold my pens together. My dil and daughter used them on their crock pots. I am taking a little me time and catching up with my friends after being at the nursing home seeing hubby.
