My fridge got a great clean out in the lead up to Christmas. I needed clear, flat shelves in a rush for a chocolate mould. It made the decision making process so much as easier as I just went "if in doubt throw it out".

So I have the pantry and the freezer to deal with, plus a huge number of eggs coming in each day. The horrid weather has made the veggie patch dormant, so don't need to worry about produce from that, but I do hope the tomatoes come through for bottling in a few months time.

Shocked by some of the expiry dates on some items, they must have been almost expired when bought in the middle of the year. I must get better at checking when shopping.
