Inventory Result: Eat More!

[cjsmith]

The fridge casualty spurred me to take inventory. I have a lot of crap in that fridge. I moved three pounds of cooked ground turkey to the freezer to buy myself some time. I had to put it all in baggies and bend it around corners to fit it in there. Freezer is FULL. Fridge is not much better off. Also now out of baggies. I absolutely must eat like a vacuum cleaner on steroids this week!

Yes, I desperately need more freezer. Desperately. I know. But there's no place to put one. In front of the fireplace, in the carpeted living room? Something seems wrong with that picture. I know! How about in the bathtub?

Sadly, this also means I can't make palak paneer for at least several days. I had been planning to do that today, but I can't make it unless I can store it -- in precisely the space the ingredients were using.

Vacuum cleaner on steroids. Gotta do it.

Palak Paneer!

[irascignavojo.livejournal.com]

Palak Paneer! Whenever there might have been doubts as to why I like (reading of) you, (a post like) this is part of the answer. I LOVE palak paneer and it is my first choice when I go the Delhi Palace in Tuebingen - and one of my first choices at the "Vishnu" in Paris.

Good luck at the vacuum cleaner thing... I try to loose weight and, considering the amount of cookies and chocolate per day which I eat on top of my family meals, marvel at the 100g I manage to loose per day (on average). So your freezer would be safe from me - except if palak panner is in there anytime soon. :)

I adore palak paneer. If mine comes out well, and if the person who gave me the recipe consents, I will definitely post what I did. (Including mistakes, because those are humorous.)

If you enjoy large quantities of cookies and chocolate, AND you also enjoy palak paneer, we should make sure to eat together some day! :-)

I am doing well at being a vacuum cleaner so far. I've eaten three big helpings of taco salad, which takes up lots of space in the fridge!

Rondo's folks used to keep their huge-o-mondo freezer in the garage. Any space out there? (I've kept freezers in the basement and in the laundry room, but you don't have room in your laundry room, and I don't remember you having a basement).

The good news is that a fully packed freezer like your little one uses a lot less energy to keep things frozen. See, you're doing a good deed for the environment. :)

If you really NEED to make palak paneer, I'd take it off of your hands. ;-)

Yeah, the garage is a garage and the laundry room and the basement. There's really not a whole lot of room in there! But where the water heater came out we think we can fit a reasonable chest freezer. (Those use less energy too, whee!)

Heh. I wish you lived closer. I'd hand you palak paneer... well, and I'd also ask to borrow some fridge space until Monday, probably! :-)
