    Default Another Neighbor Moving....

    Man, all my neighbors are leaving! And although I am very sad to see them go, (Especially this one, the mom is awesome, and her daughter and my daughter have become best friends) again, another kitchen filled with food has been given to me.

    I know I should not complain, lol, but I really have no room for all this stuff! She gave me a complete freezer filled with meats and other frozen things, a fridge full, and a pantry full. I used all of your ideas to store all the things from the last neighbor, and I will see what creative storage solutions I can come up with for this stuff as well.

    Good note, this will truly help me keep my grocery budget in check, seeing as how all I need to purchase is milk, toliet paper, and a few snack items.

    She even gave me a "underthesink" full of cleaning supplies!

    Yeah, well, you know, we are in Germany, and there are some things that just will not work back in the USA... mainly 220 appliances!
