So often we only see the nice things in life, hiding away that which is yuk. Yes totally yuk. Imagine how I felt returning home to find that Roger had emptied our fridge of food, putting it into the new refrigerator he had bought.

That in itself was fine. I was glad I didn’t have to do it. Unfortunately I was away for several days when he did this good deed and didn’t get around to opening it for another couple of weeks when I decided that I needed to take photographs in order to sell the old fridge. Imagine my horror when I opened it to see this. I cringed. I wanted to slam it shut and leave it for Roger to clean. How could we be such grubs that we had this much mould…..

Instead I took photos to show him what had happened when he hadn’t cleaned the interior when he removed the food and the effect of shutting it in temperatures that were hot, and I mean HOT.

After the photography session I got down and cleaned it thoroughly. After awhile though the varying textures started to look, not beautiful, but not horrendous either. These were life forms to be marvelled at.

Mind you – Roger is under strict instructions that he is not to empty a fridge and turn it off if I am not home.

I’m sure I have a science experiment growing in my fridge. I took out what used to be a bag of string beans to the compost. Slimy. In fact, I know for a fact, that there are some apples in a small fridge that have transformed into something completely different. I have been ignoring them for months now.

A science experiment. He should have told me that was what he was doing. The thought of your apples sends shivers up my spine but I’m glad I’m not the only one with a fridge that grows things.

I can accept it if I think of it as a science experiement. Wish I’d thought of that at the time.

More grunge than funny. It kind of turned my stomach when I saw it.
