a number of months ago my housemate and I took the time to go through the two fridge freezers and make a list of what was in them…

the concept worked fairly well, although sometimes we didn’t remember to change the lists as we took things out for meals…

we’ve been planning to update the lists for a few weeks and finally on Thursday we got to it… apparently, I’ve had a real desire for potato patties as we now have three large packages… oops…

I’ve printed out the lists and this time, besides the one on the fridge downstairs, I’ve got both on the upstairs fridge so I should be on top of what needs to be replaced and what is getting used…

I also spent time reorganizing the magnets and sticky notes, lol…

suppose…

arrived home yesterday to a cupboard cleaning frenzy…

everything had been removed from two cupboards and partially put back…

not necessarily the way I would like…

as I look at the result, it occurs to me that we use a great number of different items that I used previously, lol…

reminded me of when my beloved was off of work and doing most of the cooking… he had some bizarre idea that things should be organized the way he liked 😳…

considering that my housemate has been here for just over a year, I suppose he should have a say in how things are organized, but still🤔…

and then we dealt with the pantry together…

plows…

yesterday was the first night of snow clearing on side streets this winter, and I have finally figured out which zone we are in…

I have learned to go out as soon as the plows go by to shovel the end of the sidewalk otherwise it turns to concrete and is nearly impossible to move…

they arrived about 10:45 pm and my housemate went out and shovelled our sidewalk and the one next door… in his shirtsleeves, but he did have his gloves on…

a nice treat, although I was dressed and ready to go, lol…

they did a great job at the end of the driveway so there was nothing to shovel there…

I did stand in the window and wave to each of the drivers of the graders and plows as they went by…

it was bitterly cold and I didn’t take a photo until they were doing the other side of the street, lol…
