"Grease, fqpd and liquids spilled
on the kitchen floor, and using
rickety chairs and stools to stand

as soon as they are made; use a
sturdy kitchen stenladder when
you have to reach a high shelf.
USE IT OFTEN
The more food that "goes
through" the freezer, the less op

"live out of" their freezers as
much as possible, and thus have
a rapid turnover of frozen food,
make the most economical use of
this appliance.
