a dreaded chore

I did something last night that has needed doing for a long time now. It seemed every time I thought of it though, I had just bought groceries and the refrigerator was packed full. Last night I was making a grocery list, and it dawned on me that it was the perfect time to clean out the frige. Not only did I toss all the old and expired things, I wiped down every surface with 409. It looks practically brand new. I know this is nerdy, but it actually makes me smile now every time I open the door. So, if your frige looks as awful as mine did, just bite the bullet and clean it out. I can testify that it is so worth it- it will make you feel great!

I actually do a pretty good job of tossing out old food and left-overs regularly. What I don't do a good job of is actually cleaning (wiping down or washing) the shelves and drawers of the refrigerator and I must say that I should probably do that some time soon - I saw Casey vacuuming out one of the veggie drawers the other day!

I would love to do that one day. I am just too tired right now when I have the time to do it. maybe when the girls turn 1 - Not long now. Of course the fridge isn't too bad right now but it could use a good wipe down for sure!!
