Think we've got a few things in the freezer, to use up as well. Things seem to go into our freezer and not come back out again.0

I had a freezer that was a black hole too, until I got the idea of one draw/basket of the things I wanted to use quickly. When it started to get low, I 'd explore the depths and have another expedition to find what I could to top it up with. Before this I used to grab the handy things on top, and bits just got forgotten
Admittedly with both working it's still not easy to remember to get things out to defrost the night before, and some things don't like being zapped in the microwave.
I had a similar system with packet goods too, I had a shelf where I put the packets nearing their sellby date, I do like trying new things, but sometimes I used to put off trying them too long until I did this
Hope you find some nice goodies in the freezer!0
