Left-Overs?

Bec asked in the comments to "Just Checkin' In," below, if I had any left-overs from T-Day in my fridge. The pictorial answer is on the right!

RV refrigerators are pretty small, unless you're living in a high-end RV, which feature side-by-side "home" size fridges these days. Unfortunately, I don't live in a high-end coach or fifth-wheel. Once I pack in all of life's essentials: beer, Dr. Pepper, milk, half and half, etc. there isn't room for much else.

And another thing: I have to manually defrost the fridge, too. It's a PITA, albeit a minor one.

  1. Looks like you have all the essentials there ;)

  2. Yep! Including a box of mini-eclairs, on the bottom shelf, left. Mmmm-mmm-mmm-GOOD!

  3. You crack me up, Buck! Looks like a bachelor's fridge to me! I know what you mean about not much room, though. My folks lived in an RV for a number of years and their fridge had the same look as yours. Only theirs was filled with Pepsi and nonfat milk.

    Now if you were to look in ours, you'd see a big pan of turkey, a half-eaten pumpkin pie (say, didn't I see CoolWhip in your fridge? You ate your pie already, didn't you?), various juices and vegetables, some cooked hamburger w/onions and the standard cheese and tortillas, GRAPE JELLY (there, we have something in common - along with other condiments) and in the freezer, DiGiorno pizza and Gorton's fish fillets - and sundry Trader Joe burritos and tamales.
    A picture is worth a thousand words, though. Your accounting is much more entertaining. :)

    I was so glad to hear TFMP is on the mend. What a stressful time for her and family to go through in the meantime.

    "Various pathologies involving the gall bladder, can manifest clinically producing non-specific clinical symptoms making its diagnosis difficult and challenging. Real-time sonography is the most widely used diagnostic study for the gall bladder and the primary screening examination of choice."

    Maybe this is why it took so long to diagnose? (I know, I know. I'm such a librarian. Can't help it. It's a disease.) But I am relieved to know she's feeling better.

    Have a good day today!

  4. Mini-eclairs! I wondered what those were.

    Yep, but it was store-bought pecan, from Edwards, the maker of those great key lime pies. Not bad for store-bought. The Cool Whip is left over from the last strawberry short cake binge.

    Thanks for the gall bladder quote, too! An interesting (and not in a good way, either) thing about TFMP's "mystery illness" is that, IIRC, the doctors considered gall bladder trouble fairly early on and discounted the possibility. If I have the story straight, I believe the decision to remove her GB was made by a Dr who was consulted for a "second opinion." At any rate, I'm glad she's "fixed," and I hope she stays that way.

    Getting old sucks, but it beats the alternative...

Just be polite... that's all I ask.
