    The part with the infomercial made me laugh so hard that I spilled my coffee. I just didn't expect something like this. And you're right, that's exactly what it looked like. :D

    Oh, Natalie! You inspired me to clean my fridge. It takes a lot to inspire me, too. One drawer (deli) left to do tomorrow as I can hardly walk. But, it feels so good to have every shelf scrubbed, and out dated, old or just not used things gone. Three kitchen trash bags off to trash collection. My poor husband of 53 years, couldn’t see exactly how much was in there so he kept on shopping each week for our family of four adults (two children w/disabilities) and everyone has favorite foods. 16 pounds of butter (going to freeze half), 4 1/2 gallons of milk (we only live a mile from a small market), so I’m hoping we can make some shopping changes. But, I washed all the fruit and put it in storage containers so we have raspberries, blueberries, strawberries, cherries, green grapes, nectarines, peaches and apples all ready to locate easily and eat. Even changed the water filter, always a big deal. Thank you.

    Natalie! You're just a super amazing person, and I am so happy that I found your channel! I don't have kids or a family yet, but you have inspired me to get organized and live more minimally.
    Also, a tip I learned from Jamie's Journey on UA-cam for cleaning fridge bins and shelves: fill your clean bathtub with hot water and dawn dish soap, then let them soak in there for 15-20 min! It works wonders and should seep onto the crack of your produce drawer enough to clean it out.
    Best wishes to you and your beautiful family!

    I'm a condiment hoarder!!!!! I also love how you organize the fridge freezer and I'm thing about purchasing the veggie crisper containers because usually its the veggies that go bad and the big money waster in our fridge at home.
    I also use the fridge freshener (attached on the side with the suction cup). One piece of advice I can give is to write the date you finish cleaning the fridge on it.
    Those usually have to be changed every 30 days to keep the fridge smelling good. If you don't have one, I sometimes use a disposable cup with baking soda and just leave it in the back of the fridge (I write the date on that too).

You made the best of it! Thanks for being real about what comes out spoiled! Now that you can see everything, that should not happen as much. And, it took me much longer to figure out to use storage containers in the refrigerator to help organize. Enjoy the fruits of your labor.

    Nat, I'm wondering if you've considered switching the spots that the fridge and your coffee centre live. If things would fit, it would allow you to more fully open your fridge and freezer doors. Also, after learning more about nuts, I understand that the best place to store walnuts is the freezer to keep them the freshest-tasting and avoid them going rancid..
