In every household there are house rules. And in our house, it is this:
NO ONE MESSES WITH THE MOTHER'S REFRIGERATORS.
We are 4 in the house and we have 5 refrigerators. That is because she loves keeping everything in the icebox - medicines, biscuits, coffee grinds, freshly baked breads, etc. etc. etc. YES, she would wait half an hour at the bakery to get breads straight from the oven, and then stick them into the fridge as soon as she gets home.
Mom also doesn't like to mix contents.
She has this "clean fridge" for our fruit boxes and snacks, another fridge for her vegetables, and another one for her seasonings and condiments. I don't know what the other two are. I keep my hands off them to stay away from trouble. I just mind where my chocolates are (clean fridge).
So you see, each of our refs is really quite empty. She doesn't like to pile things on top of each other. She needs to be able to see the back of the fridge or she gets these panic/anxiety attacks. She's extremely OC like that.
Mom and Dad are away on a trip so I was able to sneak a few photos of her precious storage space.
Fruit boxes. Mine, my brother's and mine for tomorrow.
Gums and mints. She loves Juicy Fruit.
Dressings, cereal bars, nuts, probiotics
Pancake mix (she makes a mean one), instant noodles, biscotti, and that's muscovado sugar
inside the green bag. She wraps it up because sugar is sweet, baka langgamin daw!
STRAWS!!! LOL!!! And I don't know why she has those naughty candies at the back!
MOM?!?!?!?!?!?! PLEASE EXPLAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In another fridge, her sauces and seasonings
(Aha! I spot truffle honey and Peter Luger steak sauce!)
Curries and pasta sauces. Mentaiko!
And look what I found in the smallest fridge!
ZIPLOCS AND PLASTIC BAGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ibang level na ang pagka-OC nito!!!!!!!
So anyways, I was running low on my bedtime drinks and got these from the supermarket.
I started putting them in the fridge nearest to my room.
Helper: Mam, hindi pa po pwede ipasok yan.
Me: Baket?
Helper: Hindi pumapayag mama nyo ipasok mga gamit basta basta. Kelangan muna namin sabunin lahat yan.
OHHHKKKKKAAAAAAAAYYYYYYY.
