Clean Fridge!

Several months ago I found a link on Pinterest to a declutter calendar for the whole year. I'm ALWAYS trying to declutter the house, I don't understand why we have so much, so I was really excited to find this. I do as much as I can, but it's so overwhelming and sometimes I just don't know where to start or what to do. This calendar has it broken down so that it's totally doable during nap time and supposedly at the end of the year you'll have a clutter free home.
As the end of the year approached I found that a declutter calendar had been made for 2013. Originally I was going to make a cute dry erase calendar to have easy access to the declutter item for the day, but that turned out to be a little ambitious during December and all the festivities. Instead, I wrote each days' task on my regular kitchen calendar. I decided that Lauren's afternoon nap would be my declutter time. And off I went! Some of the days are just planning what or how to declutter or making resolutions about avoiding clutter, so it wasn't until the second week of January that a big project started. It was the fridge. We go through the fridge periodically, but sometimes I look in and realize we don't do a thorough enough job. So for three days I was suppose to clean out 2 shelves a day, the condiments, and then the outside. I went one step further because I'd found something else from Pinterest I'd wanted to do - put placemats on the shelves so that they're easier to clean and prettier. So I would completely clean off a shelf, take it out, rinse it off, put the placemat on and put much less food back (sadly, we had quite a lot of expired food). Then I cleaned off the outside, wiped it off, and put a lot less back. I felt a little like Superwoman getting that big of a project done AND taking care of a baby and coincidentally, that week was the first week since Lauren was born that I cooked dinner EVERY night.
I didn't take before pictures, one because nobody needs to see how dirty our fridge was, and two I didn't really think of it in time. But, here's the after. I don't think you can see the placemats too well, they're just black with white circles.
