I break into your house and steal something from the top of your fridge - what do I take away with me?

If you broken into mine, you'd get a red plastic box filled with napkins, a jug and a pot with pens in!

A Kitchenaid blender, 5 years old and used once, bought on an MN recommendation, it's rubbish and I still use my original Kenwood. If you can reach the top of my fridge you are welcome to the Kitchenaid but please leave my antique Kenwood.

A basket full of crap, and a large box with loads of the dcs beautiful artwork. It spends some time on the fridge, then gets transferred into the box. I'm not allowed to throw the masterpieces away 🙄

The dogs flea/tick treatment and lots and lots of dust.

Dried egg powder, cornflakes, shreddies and an empty cup cake carries oh and the hinge so we can change the way the doors open... been meaning to do that since January

A tin of tomatoes, tin of chickpeas and my sourdough starter!

You can have the tins but please leave my sourdough starter- nurtured/abused for years, frustrated and delighted in equal measure.

Loo roll. Cats flea treatment.

DH's protein shake powder. You're welcome to it and I'll be saved from its unfortunate side effects.

Metal trivets and tin of gardening stuff, and the digital radio.

@reluctantbrit

Kitchen roll, tin foil, baking parchment, freezer bags and a thermos flask.
This is exactly what's on the top of my fridge, do you live in my house @reluctantbrit?

Kitchen roll and bread flour

BatleyTownswomensGuild · 22/10/2020 11:25

Tupperware - knock yourself out!

sueelleker · 22/10/2020 11:39

Cookbooks!

CallieJones · 22/10/2020 11:40

Crisps, kitchen rolls, glass vases

WooMaWang · 22/10/2020 11:44

Horrible, sticky, top-of-things-in-the-kitchen dust. That’s all that’s up there.

steppemum · 22/10/2020 11:45

the dogs treats.
Tehn he woudl ambush you on the way out, making lots of noise, so everyone would be alerted to yoru theivery!

TheOrchidKiller · 22/10/2020 11:47

You will get nothing but shredded fingers. The cat will hear you coming, leap into his defensive vantage point on top of the fridge, and have you! There is no way you are getting a box of ripening plums, the cooking wine & the emergency UHT milk unless you have Dreamies

Your choice from a large selection of precariously balanced jigsaw puzzles and board games.

BiBabbles · 22/10/2020 12:22

Piles of clothes that are to go for donation or textile recycling, some spray cans, and some power tools.

winterinmadeira · 22/10/2020 12:24

Empty jam jars and biscuit tins

NickMarlow · 22/10/2020 12:27

On a good day, medicines and vases.

On a less good day, could be absolutely anything we've put out of reach of the toddler!

unmarkedbythat · 22/10/2020 12:29

Dust. It's an under counter fridge.

In our old house, a pile of letters from the dc's various schools and whatever we wanted our youngest not to get hold of.

SenecaFallsRedux · 22/10/2020 12:33

A basket with the attachments to my KitchenAid mixer
My angel food cake pan
Another basket with user manuals to various small kitchen appliances

Great idea for a thread, by the way. Smile

NiceLegsShameAboutTheFace · 22/10/2020 12:35

The television. Please don't: I'm partial to watching Bradley Walsh on The Chase as I make my morning cuppa Grin

Djchickpea · 22/10/2020 12:36

The santa hat we keep for putting on a snowman (not used very regularly!)

theBelgranoSisters · 22/10/2020 12:42

Haha we're currently in a holiday unit in Queensland and i chucked a bunch of useless crap from the coffee table up on top of the fridge (outta sight) til we leave: small decorative box of dusty shells, ugly placemats, and a weird turtle figurine with busted legs DC found "creepy". Enjoy ; )
