In regard to Dan's inquiry about storing Tupperware lids....
Many kitchens have gas as the fuel resource, with the hood-over stove
that has the odd and bulky "pipe" fixture within an all but useless
cupboard atop the hood-fan structure. I hadn't even thought of using
that cupboard for anything I actually use often until now. 'Twould make
a good storage area for every lid I may have, which must be over 50, but
I've room for and am happy with what I have in use for storage. I use a
floor to ceiling, deep pantry-type cupboard for all of my baking pans,
pitchers, measuring "cups" and all my plastic storage containers. I am
fortunate(?) to have a near never use for a Tupperware sheet cake
container, and one bread baking pan that I store all lids in...smaller
ones stacked on edge in size-order in the bread pan, larger ones stacked
on edge in the cake carrier, both containers sitting in the very front
of the tallest shelf section, with my bigger congtainers stacked inside
one another behind them.
