In Gear: How to Unclutter Your Winter Fridge
In my experience, this time of year has a way of testing (and overcoming) the capacity of even large refrigerators. Opening the door, out comes a bottle of mustard and a head of lettuce, and a slippery little pouch of baby carrots—and where exactly were you planning on putting that container of freshly made cranberry sauce that you balance in one hand while you stuff and shuffle to make space with the other hand? Oh, and there’s that block of cheddar you looked all over for earlier, crammed in the back, next to the pickles, under the hummus, sort of behind the cocktail sauce and sandwich meat, of course.
Using your crisper drawer as your starting point, you can alleviate some of the clutter, freeing up valuable fridge space for cream cheese loaf and leftover roast beast.
