*Use them in your drawers for keeping small things rounded up.  Such as office supplies, jewelry or nails.

*Freeze your extra eggs.  A medium size egg will fit perfect, just crack the egg in each cell, freeze and then pop out and put them all in a storage bag.

 

 

Add your ideas!!!

Ellie, I LOVE the egg idea! I never would have thought about that! Thank you!

Another idea I just read was to make cranberry juice or strawberry juice ice cubes to serve in lemonade. Yum!

 

What a great idea, we have an ice cube maker in the freezer, so we don't have ice cube trays, I'll have to check my cupboards to see if I have any, because it is getting about that time to start having iced coffee instead of hot coffee.

My fridge didn't come with ice cube trays either, but I picked some up at the dollar store. Another idea, along the lines of strawberry cubes is to mash overripe strawberries/blackberries/raspberries and put them in a cube tray with a little water (just as you can with herbs). Berries don't last long in my house, but nobody will eat the mushy ones and I hate just composting them.
