My family has me completely waxed! One casual ‘do you think we have enough?’ and I'm spiralling - despite zero historical evidence of us ever running out of food. They know it. They laugh. And they accurately predict the excessive leftovers.
My defence? Aggressive tupperware distribution at the door. Less evidence, fewer witnesses. 😊
But if you have the fridge space, and enough containers (you should have a few if you’ve ordered any of our meals), those festive leftovers are actually a gift. Ghosts of meals past that'll rescue you when you can't face another decision about dinner.
The 2-5-4 Rule: To keep those ghosts delicious and safe, get perishables into the fridge within 2 hours of serving. Pack them in containers no deeper than 5 centimetres (for rapid cooling). Enjoy or freeze within 4 days.
Consider it insurance against both food waste and my level of anxiety.
Love,
