Household Hints & Help

I was able to move a lot out of my fridge's freezer, so that what's still in there is the stuff I'd need regularly, like my popsicles, extra butter, a few ice packs. I bought a bunch of chicken on sale and repackaged into one-meal amounts.
I have enough space now that I can really arrange by type, rather than cram stuff in "wherever," which is wonderful.
I plan to get some bacon next time it goes on sale and repackage in usable amounts. And I'll start making soups this week...wow, I could fit so much chicken soup...I have some surgery coming up later this year, and I know that stuff will be my best bet for recovery (it truly worked wonders during my chemo last summer).
Oh wow -- I just remembered my Cuisinart ice-cream maker! I got a deal with two canisters. Now I can keep them in the freezer and they'll be ready for action.
