The Use custom settings for history is chosen: "Accept cookies from sites" and "Accept third party cookies" are both ticked, but I want to be able to say yes or no to cookies!

Your image shows that you have checked "Automatically start Firefox in a private browsing session". This is causing your problem because cookies are not kept in private browsing.

Uncheck private browsing then go back to cor-el's advice.

You can set that by choosing Keep until: Ask me every time

In that case Firefox will ask for every cookie, so you may get a lot of confirmation windows opening.

As I said - "Keep until" is blanked out. That is my problem.
