I bought a breville mini pie maker on eBay and it was delivered yesterday so I guess I'll be making party pies & quiches this weekend.
I do the best I can

Maddy my bread tins arrived yesterday, I was still to sick to use them but maybe today or tomorrow. The kids are excited by the look of them.

Snapp, I'm like you and would love to love Tupperware but every piece I've ever had has something I don't like about it. The only thing that's always been a favorite and which I would probably buy again is the microwave jug, we use it most days and on to our second one.

Looks really good for both using the skewers and cooking other foods.  Nice to serve off and will be easy to clean.  ;D

Does the microwave jug have measurements on it?

It does



I had purchased the pasta maker at one stage, but I haven't used it  :-[  I think at the time I thought the cooking times were vague....so I didn't bother  :P

Maddy the microwave pasta cooker is the best! I use it all the time. Had Some reservations myself at first (and I'm a former demonstrator) but its simple in the end and the times don't have to be exact. You never have to watch the pot or stir it and it drains the pasta and keeps it warm for awhile too. Plus its a very cheap Tupperware addition.

Modular mates are a must have for everyone. You'll never do your whole pantry at once (unless yo don't mind spending big $$) but they keep your pantry tidy, protect your food from the nasties and extends the life of the products stored in them.

Fridge smarts are another must have - they have a wavey bottom and an adjustable aeration system that allows the right amount of air to circulate. Every vegetable has a different air requirement for their longest life. It helps keep veggies for weeks! I've had mushrooms and strawberries that have been fine 2 weeks after putting them in. Buying these (and using them) will save you the most mine overall.

I can keep on and on about my favourite Tupperware products.

If anyone does have any Tupperware q's I'm happy to try and help with them.
I'm not doing it anymore so can't to replacements etc but I might be able to help you actuall get the stuff out of your cupboard and use it.

I've used my Jelly mold for tonights pizza. Love my modular mates. I have had them for over 25 years. I have to buy the cranberry lids from abroad. Find decor just as good for storing vegies in the fridge.

Chrissa I've been looking at that.  Be interested to know how you get on.

Just went shopping for DS to get him some food for his 2 weeks away for TAFE , things like cereal, marg, cordial, spaghetti, noodles, fruit, cheese, tomatoes, chips, coffee, sugar etc. even threw in a pack of timtams :D
He just has to get fridge and freezer stuff when we get there like milk, yoghurt, frozen pizza etc.
He's so tight with his money that he said he wasn't going to buy anything to eat :o
I would of made him lots of stuff but he doesn't eat a lot of cooked goodies anyway except things like sausage rolls, pizzas etc.

Creampuff that jug looks good but its $62! That's a pretty expensive microwave jug.

I agree. Mine is so old that its white. I'm so sure I only paid $25ish for it back in the day. $62 is too much.
