I just wanted to share my favorite soup tip. I usually make a pot or two of soup each Sunday. After it cools (and I've eaten a bowl) I transfer it into small storage containers (glad, rubbermaid, ziploc, etc) about the size of a bowl of soup. Then I freeze them. During the winter I keep lots of these individual "bowls" of frozen soup stashed in the freezer. They make perfect lunches at work or dinners when I'm tired from work. Just pop it in the microwave and its done. It is THE most convenient, no fuss, homecooked meal! I'm with you, Megan - I do this with the small, round microwave-safe dishes that Chinese takeout comes in. They're the right size for a generous bowl of soup, and they stack in the freezer beautifully. AND they all come with their own snap-on plastic lids - it's like free Tupperware! Thanks for reminding me of this - PJH
