Mission Organization: Fridge

Organizing the fridge is something I have not placed a lot of importance on in the past. Let's face it, no one ever looks in your fridge but you...so what's the point?

Well...the point is...I see it. And when it's messy it makes cooking stressful. Also, if you are trying to save money, having a clean and organized fridge helps you determine what foods you have and what you need to eat before it goes bad. Since my fridge has been organized I have definitely noticed less waste happening.

I wanted to have a lot of healthy options for drinks so we are less likely to drink soda. The entire top shelf is filled with liquids (ignore the Cherry 7up in the back). I also LOVE my Anthropologie egg crate and berry crate, they make the fridge look so pretty.

The blue tub is filled with snacks for the week; Yogurts, baggies of chopped vegetables, the sort of stuff you can just grab and go.

Cheese...we love cheese. Currently in my fridge I literally have at least ten types of cheese. We have so much cheese, we had to dedicate one whole drawer to the delicious food! 

 I am waiting for us to go through our condiments, as of now we have multiples of a LOT of items.

Every other weekend, I have been removing MOST items from the fridge and scrubbing it out. It's amazing how quickly the inside of your fridge get grungy and icky. Since I have re-organized, I haven't had to dedicate any time to cleaning out old food...which has been wonderful!


Below is my pantry which I have previously mentioned in a post. I have since made more progress, check it out:
