Cleaned out a bunch of old food last night that was still there from 3 weeks ago. DH was making all kinds of helpful comments like "yuk" - I was my usual charming self and reminded him who was here for the last 3 weeks to throw it out Hint - it wasn't me.

Opened the fridge door this morning, thought, and shut it. Opened it again, thought, and decided I can do the door shelves today at least. Will report back.

Door shelves nice and clean and cat hair free. I never have a large amount of food in the fridge at any time, and rarely leftovers as the animals take care of all of that. I was able to get one salad dressing bottle into recycling by pouring it into a second one of the same type. The rest of the fridge will wait until, maybe, tomorrow. Glad I got at least this part done today!

Today I made some Jell-O with canned fruit in it. While putting it in the fridge I ended up spilling a lot of it. Sticky red raspberry all over the bottom half of the fridge and door and floor. Wiped it up before it "set".

I got 2 old halves of melons out to the trash yesterday. That freed up a bit of room-- More to go!

I'm interested in how the press and seal shelves are doing too. Since I've been meaning to try that for a while. Pinterest is both great and yikes at the same time. @yaddayadda how's it holding up? I've ignored 2 spills in the fridge. Time to clean them up.

sidestep...thanks for the encouragement you give to all of us. I haven't got to the rest of my fridge yet, but I did notice I have five jars of beets in there, two homemade and three store-bought. I'll be putting beets out as a side dish, heck, maybe they'll just be lunches for the next few days!

Woohoo, clean! Martha Stewart is unlikely to feature my fridge, but anything gunky is gone. A bonus photo of the counter since I tackled that, too.

Cleaned out my fridge again! It wasn't too bad but I'm disgusted with how much food I had to toss. I either need to cook less, find more people to feed or plan meals better. All the containers I kept last time are doing their jobs, lids still fit tight, no spills. I gave the shelves and drawers a quick wipe down with peroxide. Now I just need to feed the disposal and wash the containers.
