Unfortunately, Houston is so very, very humid that things you wouldn't expect to go bad quickly (like tortillas or pita bread) get moldy really fast if you don't eat them up within a couple days. <br /><br />That was a sad waste week for me. :(Alliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09981628640737207011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14252166.post-89816461764454644402010-05-11T17:11:50.714-05:002010-05-11T17:11:50.714-05:00How did the tortilla's go bad?

It makes me feel terrible to have thrown so much out.<br /><br />What's weird is that none of this stuff got lost in my fridge (excepting the salmon; I never bought that so I simply had no idea it was in there, hiding behind some juices and such; my guess is that P brought it back from camping and didn't tell me). The potatoes got lost on my counter amongst some tea I needed to put away, but everything else was sitting at eye level in the fridge. It truly was a situation where I knew I needed to use these things and I just kept putting it off until it ended up being too late. <br /><br />I think I would've felt less crappy about it if the stuff had simply gotten lost because then I could make a list or whatever. With this, it was simply laziness/lack of motivation that resulted in all the waste.Alliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09981628640737207011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14252166.post-11654868899252864022010-05-01T08:11:08.789-05:002010-05-01T08:11:08.789-05:00Our food, and other, waste is higher than normal r...Our food, and other, waste is higher than normal right now. But, three weeks after moving in, I still don't have the kitchen unpacked even halfway. So, we're eating "camp meals" and waaaay too much prepared food (frozen & take-out). I'm really looking forward to eventually producing less waste.<br /><br />It sounds like stuff is getting lost in your refrigerator. Would reorganizing it help? Or putting a dry erase board on it that lists what is in there that is perishable? (I do the second one...when I'm settled in.)Chilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11406176434011890590noreply@blogger.com
