Open Door Policy

For some of us, the most exciting time of the day is when whoever’s in charge of bringing home the bacon actually brings home bacon. Or fresh bell peppers, milk or organic yogurt. But what’s your protocol for stocking the shelves in your fridges and freezers? Consider organizing your groceries before you open the doors on your home appliances. By only opening the freezer once, you’ll conserve energy, since the warm air in the kitchen rushes in and heats things up a bit. Just make sure that you’re not leaving the fridge door open the entire time you’re unpacking.
