tomorrow afternoon I have to do some moving of stuff - my fridge died on Thursday afternoon (it's brekkie time on Saturday here) & I didn't notice when I put away some veggies, but I did at 9pm - freezer had no ice or cool - & thermometer in the fridge said 26C = 78F. So I put the floppy contents of the freezer - bread & cheese & butter into the chest freezer. New fridge will be delivered between 8 & 11 on Monday - specially fitted in cos I have a medical appointment on Monday afternoon. I was at a festival on the weekend & did a lot of knitting & my almost-mended fractured pinkie joint (knuckle) is swollen, & as always, it was uncomfortable & a friend noticed the swelling (oops)
I also froze all vegiburgers & falafels - just in their bags, I didn't separate them & freeze them properly! I checked google & decanted my yoghurt into small 1 serve pots & took my 3 (very) soft white cheeses & 2 or 3 packets of slices & 3 dips to my neighbour who fitted them into her well filled fridge, bless her little cotton socks!! Fruit & veggies were parked on the chest freezer & stove. Today I threw out the sliced beetroot & will be throwing out my Vietnamese pickled carrots and daikon (radish) (reputable sites say they can't live outside the fridge!) I only made 3 portions a few weeks ago, & I could have re-frozen my Japanese seaweed salad (sob!) All off to landfill cos they are swimming in vinegar.
The only things in the fridge are chutneys etc, cos my bench tops are full!
On Monday a new slightly bigger fridge will arrive & to get it in my door I need the remove 2 small bookcases, one on my living room wall, the other on my kitchen wall, easy enough - they could even sit in our hallway, no one will see them. Then I need to remove all magnets on my fridge & the 2 serving bowls & 6" fan on the top ... & my sewing machine topped by a collection of craft folders & a small occasional table both opposite the small bookcase ...
At least I don't need to defrost & wipe out the fridge!
