Cleaning rambles
Cleaning out the fridge. Threw out old dried up bottles of girlie’s medication, the homemade broth she didn’t finish and kitten formula she didn’t want… the open wet food and pumpkin baby food are already in the bin and the opened bag of her dry food has started being fed to the black scallywag before it expires. The plain yogurt she didn’t like anymore can go. :(
Old bags of flour. Bin. Cordial I won’t drink. Out to whoever takes it. Cocoa powder that might be stale. Bin. Cat milk mini cartons. See if vet or shadowy visitor wants. A freshly opened tin of powdered kitten formula with a condensation damaged label that probably wouldn’t be accepted by a shelter… Move sealed tin to freezer in case of random surprise kittens I guess?
Going to run the emptied containers through the dishwasher twice because it doesn’t clean some things well but I’m not up to hand washing everything. It doesn’t rinse very well either. I used a utensil without rinsing it extra under the tap and the soap residue burnt my tongue.
Then I’m going to have to wipe this fridge out and give away stuff from the freezer.
