Behold the finest food storage containers on planet earth. The IKEA 365+ Food Saver. The big deal here is the lids. The containers are available in four sizes, but the lids are all the same size. No more frustrating searches for the one lid that fits. But wait…there’s more plastic perfection.
Finally, don’t let the low price fool you. These tubs are heavy duty. By far the most substantial containers we own. Bravo IKEA! You’re always exceeding our expectations.

Let’s face facts here. We all get to the point where we want to stuff something in our kids’ mouths and get a few minutes of peace and quiet. To guarantee effectiveness, this something is usually sweet. Oh but then the horrible sticky mess that ensues! I’m still not sure who thought that kids, popsicles, and the summer heat were a good combination.
Solve the problem by converting to the “popsicle-in-the-bathtub” philosophy. Mess and cleanup in one glorious efficient kid-friendly, house-friendly event. By the time they finish those popsicles, I’ll have clean kids and a new post up on family hack! Life is good.
