What's In My Freezer?!

The dreaded freezer... I like to think I'm practical. I try to save money on groceries. I try to save leftovers for a day when I don't feel up to cooking. I try to buy meat and other freezable things ahead of time so that I have them on hand when I am ready for them.

I don't know if you are anything like me, but my freezer is a black hole, and once something goes in, it doesn't come out for a long long time...because I forget it's in there!

Instead of searching through my freezer, or my deep freezer, I find it easier just to go to the store and buy what I need. This is not very practical.

Now, I am sure I am not the first, nor will I be the last person to think of this idea...but, I made a freezer list. I found a cute picture on the internet, went into Microsoft and threw something together to help my rid myself of my What the heck did I put in my freezer and how long has it been in there problem...

 

This cute little piece of paper sits inside a page protector and is attached to both my freezers with...a magnet. It's nice and easy and I can write on it with a dry erase marker.

 

Now everytime I am preparing a grocery list, or planning dinner, I simply walk over to my freezer and check the list. I use one side for my upstairs freezer and the other side for deep freezer items. Simple as pie!

 

 

This simple solution has really made my life easier and kept my hands warm!
