Good to see the full information here thanks to all for their help.
Every once in a while I need a tablespoon or two of cream for a recipe. I don't take cream in my coffee (don't drink coffee anyway) so got tired of buying a whole container of cream only for most of it to go to waste - it does go bad eventually.
So now I freeze it - one compartment in one of my ice cube trays neatly hold a tablespoon (I measured one teaspoon, poured it in, and it was perfect - small tray, so I froze a bunch, popped them out and have them in a plastic bag in the freezer. This way I can just thaw as many as I need next time I want some for a recipe, and none goes to waste.
Scones, for example, are just not the same if you make them with 1% or 2% milk, which is what I usually have on hand!
I've Been Frosted
I have a pair of boots that zip up the front, that I have been getting a lot of use out of this winter. The zippers are getting so they do not move up or down easily.
Is there some kind of wax or oil or ..something I can put on or along the zippers so they will work more easily?
Thanks very much!
Pat

Take a chunk and just rub it down the teeth. In a pinch a bar of soap will work, but obviously won't last as long.
The one eyed man in the kingdom of the blind wasn't king, he was stoned for seeing light.
I am cracking up, that's for darn sure. I read this as "Take a chunk and just rub it down your teeth." Whoops! Karen, could you hit the zipper teeth carefully with some WD-40? or would that stain your boots? Maybe you've heard what we say in Chicago: "If it moves, but it shouldn't: duct tape. If it doesn't move, but it should: WD-40." I have a friend who grew up in west central Indiana (home of lake effect snow) and she would rub a cake of Ivory soap on stubborn winter coat and boot zippers.
Praying for peace in the Middle East, Ukraine, and around the world.
I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!
Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

Zipper repair hints?

Recycling plastic?
If you buy 6 packs of toilet paper and cut the wrapper carefully, you can re-use it as plastic bag for stuff to recycle.
Thank you, RICHARD, for this and the zipper repair link!
