I'll get on this no later than tomorrow. I was just thinking that our fridge needs a good cleaning.

My fridge is clean!
Nothing too too gross to report, just some mashed potatoes from last week, vegetable stock that won't stay good while we're gone, and some simple syrup with algae? in it. Also a condiment shelf with some brown sticky that I had been avoiding for weeks and weeks.
I hope to come back after vacation and report on a still-clean fridge as well as a newly cleaned freezer. There is one thing in there that will either gross you out completely or have you laughing out loud...

YAY for the extension!! I found blueberries that were missed they were tossed! I organized a little and put caned fruit that needs to be used soon in there. I moved other canned fruit from the top shelf to the bottom. YAY For a better organized fridge. YAY for Amnesty!

I've finished my fridge, as well! Yes, hooray for extensions and amnesty! In addition to the mysterious bagged brown sludge in the crisper (beets? who knows??) I also threw out items that were still "good" because they were rarely used and cluttering up space. Who IS this person I'm turning into...?

I see there's an extension. Thanks, sidestep. Sign me up. Next week I am changing out refrigerators so I have two to empty and one to clean. #1 is going to the dump. I have emptied the freezer part of fridge #1 and all but the door in fridge #2. Freezer food from #2 and perishables from #1 will be boxed up on moving day with hopes that most of it makes it when put back in their new home. Today I will work on the fridge part of #1 and cull as much as possible. I have condiments in the door that are rarely used. Amnesty. Confused? I should think so.

We DID it! Dh motivated all of us. It became a family project that took about 2.5 hrs from start to finish. But the fridge is so shiny and empty! Feels good to not cringe everytime it gets opened. This has made my week. Finally finished a challenge.

I will clean my fridge on Tuesday. Garbage pick up is on Wednesday. Until then, the dead food is going to remain in it's little plastic Rubbermaid Coffins. Until then I will post a flower cut out on top of the dead stuff as a warning not to consume it!..
There is some Spaghetti that I am worried about, it may be mutating... It scares me. It will probably go out, Plastic Coffin and all!!!!
