But you keep trying to prove it (nobody is complaining).<BR/>I'm a list person, but only on paper, not an electronic gizmo. I have a list of everything that should be in our kitchen cupboards at any given time. When I do my weekly shop, I take the list down and read through it, writing on a scrap of paper the items I know I've run out of. Mostly I can remember, but if not, I'll go to the cupboard and check. I HATE getting to the supermarket and finding I've left my shopping list at home!!!Gina E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07532527261977368083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23379328.post-79560134054573938842009-03-06T22:35:00.000+00:002009-03-06T22:35:00.000+00:00It is surely well-known that rice last forever...It is surely well-known that rice last forever...Fire Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13518190677399410354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23379328.post-35900458670841214142009-03-06T21:26:00.000+00:002009-03-06T21:26:00.000+00:00Rice has a sell-by date?

But we all forget - go to the cupboard for flour or whatever and find there is none there! <BR/><BR/>Few things go off - most mature nicely. Rice certainly does not go off. If I find I am out of rice cos of poor organisation I just make something else instead - with couscous or pasta or whatever. <BR/><BR/>I don't think I have any OCD tendancies at all sadly. Well, all my books are in author order - does that count? <BR/><BR/>Those cats are so perfect.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23379328.post-65425061788517145682009-03-05T22:51:00.000+00:002009-03-05T22:51:00.000+00:00I'm forever trying to organize or clean out someth...I'm forever trying to organize or clean out something, but the grocery list/menu list is something I sit down and work on every week/two weeks. I frequently duplicate the list week after week and the spreadsheet would be a good idea.... but that would take time, too. :) I don't have rice going bad, I have produce going bad. Currently we are out of milk, trash bags...and others.

But I have to admit my cupboards are much too full, and should have items removed. Such as all the fancy things people give you but which we never use.<BR/><BR/>My energies are to be used in putting all my travel postcards into albums. Or/as well as listing all my CDs. Much more fun and useful, I think. Surely there must be a simple way to list CDs, other than typing the contents?<BR/><BR/>I love those cat photos!persiflagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05161607100227748374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23379328.post-86819255321241305872009-03-05T03:30:00.000+00:002009-03-05T03:30:00.000+00:00The catlets probably care very little how much or ...The catlets probably care very little how much or how little rice you have at any given time.
