Hey guys! So so excited to be sharing a new video with you! It’s been a long time coming and, as I’ve mentioned before, hope to share many more of these. I think I have a good system down for editing, which definitely makes the entire process easier. Editing is about 80% of the battle, to be honest. Well, that and actually being in front of the camera. But I’ve thrown in the towel and decided that off the cuff / as unedited as possible works best for me. I use iMovie to edit and there’s a super easy function for uploading from iMovie directly to YouTube – yay! Anyway, I couldn’t wait to finally share a more detailed look into my organized fridge and freezer so that’s what this video is all about today!
Occasionally on Instagram I share my Sunday fridge…
These are some of my most liked images…which is always funny to me – and equally flattering. I really do enjoy a well organized fridge, but most importantly I do this to help the week run smoothly. We eat healthier. I always have meals prepped for long work days. Making lunches is a breeze. Dinner is WAY less stressful too because everything is ready to go or planned out. So, in all honesty, I do this because it takes the complication out of life. But apparently, my friends love to see an organized, pretty looking fridge too. And I have no problem with that!
If you aren’t following me on IG, I wish you would! It’s so fun over there and we have built a great Simply Organized community. Everyone is engaged and chatty and people share their own tips in the comments. But I also pop in from time to time to share a Live feed…if you can catch me (there isn’t a replay), those are always fun / interesting. I’m typically off the cuff and in rare form (read = very caffeinated). I usually follow up a Live IG feed with a Facebook Live, and those are viewable after I’ve ended the broadcast.
After sharing the Live Feeds I was blown away by the interest in my fridge and those who e-mailed requesting the details of my containment, how I plan and prep for the week and more. So be on the lookout because there is going to be a lot of content around this topic here on the blog. And more videos about it too!
If you aren’t an IG or FB person, no worries – you can view a video of my organized fridge & freezer right here or on my YouTube Channel! Hope you enjoy the video and please leave any questions in the comment section – happy to help!
Thanks for watching and sharing, guys!
Thank you! I loved this video and can’t wait for the ones about food/meal prep and prepping food for kids. That’s really true that kids do eat a lot of the same foods so it should be fairly simple. Very inspiring!!
Thank you so much! Look forward to sharing much more content on the topic!!
Thank you so much for sharing Sam, you should do more videos you come across very well in them. I love following your blog and IG account. I’m in the middle of a house renovation and am waiting on a new fridge, but I have my glass containers ready and am trying to do more snack and meal prepping. I live in Surrey in the UK, I’m a mum to three children and I teach part-time as well. I need your tips to help me with my busy life! Thanks again Sam!
Thanks for these great ideas! It’s new to me to think of the fridge like it’s an empty bookshelf.
Thanks so much for this video! I loved it! Using square or rectangular containers is such a great suggestion!
What do you do with sliced bread? I put mine in the fridge cause it goes bad so quickly on the counter.
Hi Mary,
My sliced bread is in a cabinet and it never goes bad! (I buy oroweat, in general) If I have french bread or rolls, however, those have to go in the fridge – and those are only occasional items around here.
xx,
Sam
