    We clean out our refrigerator today. I was going to say celebrate but I think not. The timing is perfect and there may be a surprise or two found at the back of the shelves. With Thanksgiving coming soon, we will need room for all of the upcoming leftovers.

    Clean out the fridge day? I think not! I’ll get to it soon though with Turkey day looming in the near future. Today has dawned bright, clear, sunny with a slight breeze. What a day for an outdoor fire and fun! Thanks MS for the reminder–may take some potatoes with us back into ‘the boulevard’ as we like to call it as the entrance has a canopy of trees that has the illusion of a tunnel to get where we are going. Just a hop and a skip from our back door. Always see deer and plenty of birds too.
    Best get to it and have a wonderful day…oh and PG and MS–the pics are GREAT!!!!

    Good morning – my fridge shouldn’t be too bad, though there’s some leftovers that need to be dealt with, and maybe part of a tomato that’s past its prime. At least nothing looks back at me!
    The café crew is gathering, but I’m making them wait a bit longer. Don’t want them to think they can summon me whenever they want – especially at the crack of dawn.
    Beautiful day – sure to be a purrfect evening for a bonfire!

    Hi everyone,

    OK MS, what is the furry thing in the refrigerator? Alas, I have an older fridge and don’t have door shelf big enough for an LOL kitten. 🙁

    Your tunnel sounds like a peaceful place for a walk and a bonfire. Enjoy!
    Yes JJ, you better keep reasonable hours for the café.

    The paper delivery person is late again. Anymore, I don’t if or when I’m getting my paper. 👿 At least I have Am. football. I’m either going to be delighted or grrr after the games so cya l8r.

    At least nothing moves on it’s own in fridge, JJ! LOL
    Worked with someone who left adanish pastry on window sill for several months to see what it would progress to. Yes, job was booorrrring! Eventually made her toss it, clearly she’s missed her calling as microbiologist.
    I could probably fit an LOL kit into my fridge, OK maybe not the “well-padded” tabby who “cleaned out the fridge.” Love the kit who’s checking out the gasket and the husky who naturally feels right at home hehehe. Knowing me, you can glean that there is very little in my fridge and what there is is srsly neatly arranged. Some things stowed in freezer (thank goodness it’s the frostless kind) but also arranged so’s I know what’s there. I clean fridge intermittently so as not to have to do major job all at once.

    Love the theme and pics today! …. I’m always cleaning out my fridge …. never been one for a whole lot of leftovers … if we can’t finish them in 2 days, they get tossed! …..

    … today is ‘clean the boxes’ day …. not looking forward to it, but it’s got to be done! …. maybe can relax a bit later 🙂

    … have a good one all!

    Cleared a few things out of the fridge but there is still lots in it. I love leftovers – we usually have a leftover night about once a week.
    Does anyone know the method of taking a tick off a cat using soap? If I remember correctly, it’s a dab of dish soap on a cotton ball, apply to tick and it falls off. Never tried it – guess I’ll give it a go when he comes back. I got one off one of the black cats yesterday using tweezers but the one today is on another black cat that isn’t as relaxed.

    Life took a poke at KJ!
    Just after I posted that my fridge is almost always purrfectly in order, a cup of whole cloves jumped off a side shelf and was all over the place as cover also flew off. Had to take out crispers, glass, give the whole inside bottom a good going over. Guess that I spoke too soon! 😉

    Good morning all. It’s wet here today. YAY rain, we need it and now my gardens are gently slurping up the moisture and I won’t have to do early morning watering. HRH was outside for the minimum amount of time to perform her morning ablutions and was back inside to down her breakfast including a large bowl of kitten milk & Lysine and has now gone to bed for the day.
    KZ, glad I jogged your memory about the potatoes for the bonfire. I love the sound of your ‘boulevard’, almost magical.
    JJ, LOL @ ‘nothing that looks back at me’. I agree you mustn’t let the outdoor Cafe Crew think they make the timetable.
    PG, which furry thing? The first or third pic. Both are rather surprising to find in a fridge. O hate it when the paper delivery is late, usually only happens here when the weather is so bad the trucks can’t brings the papers from the city they are printed in mainly because rivers have overflowed the road. I am a news junkie. 🙄
    KJ, eeeek a danish on the window sill for several months, how did you manage to contain yourself and not throw it out. What did it look like after several months in the open and was this Summer or Winter.
    AV, I work on the same thinking on the whole, if leftovers and not eaten within a couple of days then into the freezer to await rubbish day. What we don’t finish one evening become the next days lunch or dinner.
    Oh no KJ, you tempted the fates and they responded. 🙁
    As it’s a rainy day and I can’t go outside I will go and give my fridge a going over in preparation for it’s busy season in December. I will sort through the jars of condiments and see what is maybe close to it’s use by dates and have I doubled up of some.
    Lurking now.

    Oh no KJ, you spoke too soon! I bet your fridge truly sparkles!
    I’m not happy when the paper is late either. Hubby buys The NY Daily News every day, but we get a local paper delivered Wednesdays and Sundays. Had an issue a few months back that thankfully has been resolved. I understand if the kid has an after school activity on Wednesdays but I want my Sunday paper in the morning!
    Oh there’s nothing like watching one’s garden getting a well needed soaking. Enjoy the rain, MS.
    I had a giggle at the cats’ expense outside this morning. I’ve been averaging 6 hungry mouths in the morning but today there were 7. It was like a variation of “musical chairs”!

    Top shelf on fridge cleared of condiment jars and my compost worms will be enjoying overly sweet pickles, olives, pepperdews and some Christmas fruit mincemeat. Some Indian curry pastes washed down the drain as there was too little left to make a meal with. Interesting aromas in the kitchen now. Next shelf is cheeses, salamis and tomato pastes.
    PG, little did you know what you have started with your Cafe thread.

    Indeed JJ, my fridge now gets the “Goodhousekeeping Seal of Approval!”
    MS, that Danish pastry saw winter through early summer on window sill. It was wrapped in plastic and actually got very hard, but fortunately didn’t attract any crawly takers! Lots of weirdness went on in those days at my job. Including a loathesome colleague who wrote a “script” with all of us very obviously characters, details of our lives modified and not in a nice way. His fault that he left it on the photocopier. Eventually he got fired for some reason or another.

    Just made it here and enjoyed catching up with everyone. I cleaned out my pantry yesterday, but only because I spilled something in there. (It’s a good motivator isn’t it, KJ?)

    Hope Comet continues to feel better, Joan. Your description of him yesterday made me sad. 🙁

    I meant the third pic, MS. The more I look at it the more it looks like the women is wearing a furry suit. The rain is wonderful. We both live in dry climes so every drop counts. Hey AV-when is the temperature going to get below 80f?

    When I started this thread I knew KJ fridge would pass the white glove test. Alas KJ, you had the ever so rare “Jumping Cloves” in your home. *snerk*

    Sorry JJ about the Jets and the Giants were this close. 😯

    My Steelers won. Landry Jones (backup QB) was out with a sprained ankle and Ben came in (with a bad foot) and brought it home.

    I am being summoned by Miss Gaea.

    PG, it is a lion, the rest of his body and hind legs are out of the shot and creates an illusion that the lady is wearing a furry suit.
    KJ, just as well that it was over the colder months or it could have been a lots worse. Loathsome colleague got what he deserved.
    ROTFL at the rare jumping cloves attack.
    Hi ECB, spills are a great motivator.

    Leftovers are hard to manage. I can’t see myself making a ratatouille, another kind of stew or even some roast chicken legs for one night – that would be very wasteful in terms of time and electricity – but at the same time one can get sick of things and neglect them until they must be tossed. I really try not to waste food, and have to recognize that I need a smaller volume of food as a boomer than I did when younger. I live near Jean-Talon Market where there are such beautiful vegetables.

    Some of those fridges in the pictures have so much canned and packaged stuff. That is a bit distressing, as I was brought up on home cooking.

    As for Renzo, he is always willing to lend a paw when it comes to roast chicken!
