Reprehensible wastefulness:

I am using a (metal) (butter) knife to cut apart the frozen cabbage soup chunk in a big cheap Glad tupperware container that I had frozen it in and then partially thawed out on a dinner plate in my refrigerator, and I promise myself that I won't accidentally slide the knife in too far and pierce the container side and ruin it like I did a while ago with a similar container, and then my hand slips and I go and do it, again.
