In high school my mom had this black plastic pan made for steaming thing in the microwave. One day I pulled it out and without thinking I tried to use it on the gas stove top to make something. I melted it. In my defense it looked like a sauce pan. In the plastic pans defense - I obviously wasn't thinking.

@Tami, how did I manage to miss most of those??

Kitchen stories ... The one where the refrigerator door feel off in my hand on Thanksgiving morning?

Or when the turkey fryer turned into a turkey fire?

Or how about when the 3:00 no-fail standing rib roast turned into grilled rib-eyes?

I spilled water on the birthday cookies and had to bake another batch (and eat the dry edges off of the first batch)?

We used to divide the labor that I did the cooking and my husband (then boyfriend) did the dishes. He left the dishes so long that a pan rusted through. I picked it up, looked at him through the six inch hole in the pan, and lectured him that the pan cost a lot of money and he needed to do the dishes every day.

I would love to win too! We eat a lot of leftovers in our house and can always use more storage containers, especially ones that are made well. The cutting boards/mats look awesome too. I cut a lot of fresh fruit and veges in my kitchen and would enjoy those.

Story from my kitchen... On numerous occasions I have been trying to steam veges over the stove and was multi-tasking too much

We always have leftovers in our home, my husband cooks so much food. My fridge overflows with plastic containers. I would love one day to replace them all with chemical free ones.

These look really cool! Oddly enough, we joke that our fridge is where leftovers go to die. It's tall and black and shaped like a coffin... Ha.

I learned today that toxins are produced by living cells while toxicants are man-made. (http://www.sciencebasedmedicine.org/index.php/science-and-medicine/fashionable-toxins/) Seems to be today's theme, I guess.

Kitchen stories...well, my most memorable was the time I learned that our oven thermometer no longer worked. I was trying to make cupcakes, but ended up with hockey

WANT these. I've been looking for tempered glass containers I can use for freezing and reheating (especially freezing, since I just got an ice cream maker for my birthday!).

hmm, tale from my kitchen? our daughter now shouts out all the ingredients for our morning smoothies as we make them. ever hear a 2yo yell "protein!" or "flax!" or "vitamins!"?

I once steamed asparagus for about 40 minutes too long and ended up with, essentially, asparagus soup. :)

I think some of my funniest kitchen tales come from when I was pregnant (cause logic and common sense flew out the window). There was the time (of course, while pregnant) that I decided I HAD to make an apple pie at 9 at night. It was gorgeous and smelled so good...but, it was completely inedible because I forgot to put in the sugar.

We experiment a lot with food and the whole family gets involved in cooking fun--- of course, sometimes experiments go awry so we need containers and the right tools... to wrap up the things that make it :-) Ha! I'd love to win these... sounds like you guys had a blast!

A tale from my kitchen would NOT be brief! How about the time we baked rice crispy bars in the oven?

That looked like so much fun!

I"ve been looking for these containers since I saw a commercial for them

Pick ME!
