It looks nice and clean.

But I keep my meat at the bottom of the fridge. Any one doing different here gets 'the look'. :mad:

I know what you mean about raw meat and dripping.... but it's a completely sealed packet... else it'd be on the bottom. And I intended it to only be there one day.

If it were in danger of dripping, it'd be on the bottom shelf, sitting in a dish.... to be sure.

As for the fridge being clean.... I've never "cleaned" it, I keep it clean by not mucking it up in the first instance.... nothing is ever "shoved carelessly in" - it's all placed.

I think its a nice aspect of being mistress and so,e occupier, you are in control of details. . Here, you let slip and men are forgetting the importance of things like that, so everything has its place ALWAYS in the fridge.

Now if only I had the energy to follow it through elsewhere:(. Resident parent is messy and won't put things away. There are many bickering a about it. It means by the time I deal with things like that I'm too exhausted to make any progress ever.


Edit...actually all of us are messy,,,,,its just on ex's own mess is easier to deal with because it looks like stuff, not mess!

A couple of months ago I had a super tantrum ( I mentioned it here) and got a bag and went through the house looking for stuff that was just mine to put in it to make a point. It shocked both DH and parent, but I think it made the point. Parent has more stuff in my house than I do, and won't stop buying carp.

I put folded kitchen paper under anything that's got drip potential. e.g. when I had a small pint of milk in the fridge, it was sitting on a piece of kitchen towel.

As a rule, I avoid anything with drip potential

So, that photosharing was achieved by:
- taking a photo
- having a Google images account, part of the G+ thing
- uploading from the choice of icons on the phone direcrtly into there
- log onto that account and choose share, make it public, then I right-clicked to get the url to the image.

But, that's not an easily achievable route using just the phone....

I haven't worked out yet how to do things like right-click, or Select All or Copy on the phone.

Went to see Gravity at the cinema recently.
In some respects it is a pretty intense film. It's well done, in the claustrophobia of space is well done.
Elements of it make you feel a little uncomfortable. I wouldn't say I relaxed whilst watching it.
At the same time, it didn't drag, indeed it flew by, so I was engaged.
A couple of small things about the ending annoyed me, but I won't post yet in case any NP's plan to see it. It is recommended.

Did you see it in 3D, jelly?
Mrs Wheezy would like to go see it in 3D.
We've never been to see a 3D movie in the cinema.

Pastures,

This is a screen shot of what I see in my food album in my photo bucket app ( I have multiple albums but don't organise them well)

[

I can select each photo to take up the whole screen.

Edit, have changed pic, to upload a picture including the screenshot in the picture...

In order that everyone has the opportunity to start a thread once, we decided that the ladies would go first. So once all the ladies have started a thread we will move onto the men who haven't yet had a turn.

Ahem! In the Michaels household I am resposnible for buying all the food and planning all the meals and I have a system when I put away in the fridge - meat in meat drawer, veg in crisper drawer which is below the meat one but both are drawers so no danger of anythign dripping. Bottom drawer is randon bottles/cans, shelf above is larg bottles on side and unopend milk and juice cartons (opened ones go in the door), next is the large veg drawer (all veg except potatoes and onions which live in a cupboard and sometime tomatoes) then the smaller meat drawer (which could really be a bit larger) then a large shelf for 'bread' type products that most people would probably keep in a bread bin then a small shelf for chilled savoury products - quiche, home cooked products in tupperware, eggs, coleslaw etc then top shelf is chileed desert type products - yoghurts and so forth and also cheese and various chocolate bars. Open condiments (pickle, ketchup, jam etc) in the door.

That is how I leave it after unpacking the shopping - after a week of DW/DKs using stuff it is completely random
