Pam,

I don't remember what you said you did for a

living, but I really think you should write a book

with all the neat ideas you have!

---Glad and Ziploc make the compartment dishes with lids and they can

them when I take leftovers from home to work to enjoy for lunch the

next day. They are convenient and no spills on the way!!!

I checked out Lean Cuisine, something I did buy at one time and the

carbs are really high. Saw one entre that was 41 carbs and the rest

are not much better. Also loaded with sodium.

Yes I've seen them but the portions are a bit deep which means more

of the food. I was more going for the fact that the size of the

serving grooves were more in line with the way we should be eating.
