Inspired by Beth

June 15, 2025 by Lauren 3 Comments

Whenever we attend a get-together, Beth always brings a veggie tray. She has the divided Tupperware tray that has seven spots for different things. It’s always nice to have vegetables around, and this is a good way to do it. She says she keeps in in her fridge all the time for handy munching.

When the Peperkorns came for graduation, I thought it would be nice to do the same. Our local thrift store had a round option, but with no dividers. It works great when it’s full, but when it’s empty it’s a little weird.

I looked online for a loooooong time for a rectangular option. There’s a cool one for traveling because the lid is level with the tops of the sections, but that’s not very useful for heaping stuff. Plus, it’s small. I wanted bigger with a taller lid.

So, I bit the bullet and bought it. It takes up less real estate in the fridge, and I’ve gone through three rounds of vegetables with the old one (that is on it’s way back to the thrift store) and one full cycle with the new one.

(The round one had just been washed – it’s not really that spotty.)

Let’s see how long I keep this up!

    Dang it! You’re posting again? And I’ve missed all these posts?

    I like your veggie tray. I should eat more vegetables.

    A rectangular veggie tray — I like that! I have my mother-in-law’s veggie tray. It’s got a crack, so a new one will be coming eventually.

    Also, it’s great to keep those veggies in the fridge for munching. We do the same thing here.
