(My playlist is having troubles today....sorry)
As I was rummaging through my vegetable bin in the fridge yesterday, I came across a moldy mass of oozing mushrooms and mushy zucchinis.
How does this happen??
I try to be vigilant. I try to stay on top of things. But apparently things go bad before I can get to them.
I found some yoghurt that had expired in the Clinton administration. It was pretty much petrified.
But it's the unlabeled containers of leftovers that are stacked 3 or 4 high way in the back that scare me. Was that turkey dressing from Thanksgiving or Christmas?? Please tell me it was from Christmas!
Why, then it would only be one month old...
Today's Small Thing is to get your heads into your refrigerators and then throw out all that stuff that's no good. Take a minute to examine the expiration dates on packages, and check for the veggies that will never make it to the table as a steaming side dish because they were forgotten in the bin.
I like to do a quick wipe of the shelves while I'm at it and it really feels nice to see clean glass. The sticky jelly and ketchup spills in there are so uninspiring. When it looks good, I feel like I'm a person on a cooking show, so professional! Bon appetit!
POINTS: 40 for getting rid of the stuff that's No Good
