Don't get excited; the Pile of Denial is still intact.
I tackled the freezer today, though, after some subtle hints from The Husband, and threw out some unidentifiable icebergs. I also noted (from the back of the freezer) that hey, we don't need more sausage. Also, we've got plenty o' flatbreads for pizza. Let's go buy some tomato sauce and mozzarella already.
I organized the items I salvaged into sections invisibly labeled "Meat," "Chicken," "Dessert," "Nuts," "Bread-like Stuff, Including Dough and Pie Crusts," "Fruits and Vegetables," and "Ice."
This morning I had breakfast with a friend who organized her pantry around times of day: "Breakfast" on the bottom shelf, with "Lunch," "Dinner," and "Dessert" ascending from there. She explained that she and her Other Half were still working out the distinctions between "Lunch" and "Dinner" foodstuffs; he was often confused.
Her "Dessert," I noted, was closest to the heavens.
"Or," my friend winked, "just out of reach."
