Now I’m going to talk about organizing the freezer.
Are you sensing a theme here?
From these pictures, our freezer situation doesn’t look that bad, and it isn’t.
I went out yesterday to tidy it up the shop freezers get a handle on what we have and what we need to remember to eat. We have a chest freezer that my mother-in-law handed off to me and an outdoor fridge with a top freezer that I have had since the 80s.
We don’t overfill either but it’s hard to get around in there and stuff can get buried.
I had this great idea that I would look for organizing ideas on line.
*sigh*
It’s all “Hi I’m Tammy, and I’m an expert organizer.” And a picture of Tammy and a bio of Tammy and sign up for Tammy’s newsletter and get some free worksheets. And 20 screens of Tammy telling me to clean out my freezer and then label everything.
I already can handle all this. I want to see pictures of things you use to organize inside.
I didn’t get much from Tammy. But I found products.
We already have stacking baskets in the chest freezer but they are old and don’t fit together well and you can’t really lift them out easily. There are all kinds of stackable baskets online so I think I’m going to get out my tape measure and buy a different system that stacks better and is easier to lift in and out.
I really hate to buy more plastic crap but I looked around at what we already have and I am trying out some plastic bins in the upright freezers (1 inside and 1 outside) to see if they are life-changing.
Wish me luck.
