Then pour from the 13 oz container into the 5 oz container, full. What remains in the 13 oz container is 8 oz. Pour it into the 11 oz container. Pour the 5 oz container back into the original container. Repeat, but leave the 8 oz. of juice in the 13 oz container. Now you have 8 oz each in the 11 oz, 13 oz, and original container.Ronnicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18242687458315186709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7800932118907030185.post-10817112535509586102009-01-05T22:35:00.000-05:002009-01-05T22:35:00.000-05:00LOL CHEF E where ar you???
