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 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!

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.
I am cracking up, that's for darn sure. I read this as "Take a chunk and just rub it down your teeth." :confused: 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.
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!
