Doris, that would be too easy. I label the meals I put in the freezer
by slapping a piece of plain old Scotch tape on the lid. Write the
contents and date on the tape with a Sharpie.

It's easy enough to label canning jars or any other sort of containers.
It's just another excuse why something won't work for her.
