Default manicotti strategy

I cut them in half, stand the flat end on a cutting board, then use a tiny
spoon with which I fill em like an ice cream cone. They are easier to
handle when filling, easier to remove from the baking dish, and at a
potluck, maybe ppl will take fewer and leave some for the next guy.

It also dawned on me that if a tube is split lengthwise, they are nice for
building a small lasagne, as there are lots of grooves to hold the sauce,
and a much easier than handling those loooooong noodles too.

a ziplock. All kinds of sizes.
