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.

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 ?

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.

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

How will you cook it, roast or poached??

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

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

Lollin wine box takes up room!!

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.

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!

Trisha57 Sat 21-Nov-20 18:07:27

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!

Woodmouse Sat 21-Nov-20 18:02:20

Here's mine. Shopping being delivered on Thursday.

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?

Thirsty work reading Gransnet PamelaJ1 ?

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

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”.

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.

Auntieflo Sat 21-Nov-20 17:30:01

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.

Whiff Sat 21-Nov-20 17:24:37

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.

ginny Sat 21-Nov-20 17:22:09

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

grannypiper Sat 21-Nov-20 17:10:15

I have a half empty bottle of milk and a portion of cauliflower cheese in my fridge. Have defrosted my fridge freezer in time for stocking it full of Christmas goodies.

dragonfly46 Sat 21-Nov-20 16:52:41

We also have a fridge freezer in the garage and a wine fridge in the dining room!!

crazyH Sat 21-Nov-20 16:48:07

Mine

Jaxjacky Sat 21-Nov-20 16:44:35

Gosh, mines positively empty compared to others, but everything was run down with new kitchen going in!
