Go on, I dare you!

Go to your fridge now and take a picture of the contents.
You can tell a lot about a person from their fridge, they say.
Mine might say that I like Greek yogurt, oh and the occasional Pimm’s.

Here’s mine. Fairly full as we shopped this morning. Looks quite healthy too.?

Looking at your fridges I hope that everyone had their raw meat and poultry on the shelf above the salad draw. And not on any other shelf.

I think I might be over to Missfoodlove for roast lamb ?
This is mine, I would like a bigger one, and there are two freezers in the garage.

I am indeed B9exchange
I had intended to have a week off (see pic) but of course couldn’t have my old name back, so I went for what hoped would be a “soundalike” so as to make it clear that it’s still me.

There's a tortoise hibernating in a box in the fridge in my garage!

Everything full fat in mine! No yogurt because we’re eating porridge at the moment.
You may have guessed that I quite like tonic?
beechnut are you on a liquid diet?

grandMattie Sat 21-Nov-20 17:48:21

Shopping on Tuesday. Don’t have wine as I’m allergic to white wine and DH Prefers his beer “warm”.

GrannyGravy13 Sat 21-Nov-20 17:52:00

Here’s my really messy kitchen fridge, far too embarrassed to show the beer/wine fridge blush

Here's mine. Shopping being delivered on Thursday.

What lovely big fridges you all have! And well-stocked too. Mine is looking rather empty at the moment as I'm using up all the bits of left-overs that I freeze and I'm determined to buy less until the freezers are emptier. Juliet27 my tortoise is too big to fit in the fridge in our garage and anyway that's where I keep the wine and beer stocks so I can't take any shelves out!

Lollin Sat 21-Nov-20 18:25:51

jaxjacky yours is full compared to mine. Has everyone else just been shopping am surprised how full they all are!

Luckygirl Sat 21-Nov-20 19:21:40

You do all have lots of food! - I live alone and my fridge is very sparsely filled.

Jaxjacky Sat 21-Nov-20 19:39:32

Lollin wine box takes up room!!

B9exchange Sat 21-Nov-20 23:14:34

That's a relief Maw, hope you had a good break! grin

Maw I knew your OP was for nefarious purposes! ? Are you GN’s Fridge Prefect? The Norty Step could be full quite quickly!……… ?

How will you cook it, roast or poached??

PamelaJ1 Sun 22-Nov-20 16:18:53

I’ve over ordered on milk? this weekend.

I did that last weekend but I froze some. It seems fine.

Reminder to self: order a bottle shelf thingy.

Baggs Sun 22-Nov-20 17:06:58

What big fridges people have!

Baggs Sun 22-Nov-20 17:09:12

The sour cream is for a Ukrainian borscht (sic) that I'm going to make. It has cabbage in it too (and carrot and potato but they are elsewhere) and one eats it with rye bread that is spread with sour cream onto which one sprinkles salt ?

Baggs Sun 22-Nov-20 17:09:40

Oh, and the salad drawer broke.

Baggs Sun 22-Nov-20 17:10:57

Fridge is 22 years old and just fine, apart from the salad drawer, in spite of mice chewing all the insulation off the pipes ?

Missfoodlove Sun 22-Nov-20 17:22:52

Auntieflo, well spotted!!
Dog, myself and husband been on a hike.
Lamb in the oven and a lemon, yoghurt and semolina cake just come out of the oven.
Perfect Sunday.

Whitewavemark2 Sun 22-Nov-20 19:02:18

I cleaned mine out today, so it is looking much tidier now.
