She saves all her mayonnaise jars and the lids. When the meal is done, she looks for an appropriate container, fills it with leftovers, and puts it in the refrigerator or, rarely, the freezer. Mom lives in Florida, and if you took away her oven, she and my dad wouldn't much miss it. She has a toaster oven, which appears to be her workhorse, useful for reheating leftovers, baking potatoes and broiling meat. She isn't so foolish as to try to heat anything that's sitting in plastic.
Hunger is the mother of impatience and anger.
