Pics, portable containers and pancakes

Isn't it funny what things you find yourself coveting when you visit others? For example, on our recent jaunt to Rhode Island, I found myself quite envious of the amount of Tupperware my SIL owns. Like, she has more than one cool container that is made to hold half an onion or tomato, or any bulbous object for that matter. I mean, all I gots is the standard Ziploc set, which I replace every year or so for a whoppin' $6.99. But now I feel like I must expand my collection. And start eating tomatoes.

Also, she and my BIL had an impressive command on breakfast foods. In our short time there, they made us french toast, eggs benedict, crepes and aebleskivers (a real word, though I wasn't totally convinced until I googled it this morning after Cichelli mentioned it yesterday). They're round pancakes, which are made in a special pan - which THEY OWN! I mean, c'mon! How is a girl supposed to keep up?

I can only imagine the cool Tupperware container they put their 'skivers in.
