Abstract: A one-piece molded basket with a bottom defining an outer periphery and an inner section that defines a number of openings and is interior to, and at least substantially surrounded by, the outer periphery. The outer periphery is constructed and arranged to rest on a relatively flat surface and some or all of the inner section is located above the bottom of the outer periphery such that the inner section is above the flat surface when the outer periphery is on the flat surface. There are one or more indented vent channels that extend through the outer periphery and lead to the inner section, to allow air to pass through the outer periphery, a top rim, and a sidewall contiguous with and extending between the bottom and the top rim.

Abstract: An ice cube tray with a number of generally semi-circular depressions arranged in a number of columns and rows, with a number of depressions in each column and each row, wherein each depression is surrounded by a rim, and a shoulder formed in each rim. The shoulders are constructed and arranged to support part of the sidewall and/or bottom of a depression of another identical tray placed on top of the tray.
