Dojo Kitchen

All,

I spent some time Sunday cleaning out the refrigerator and garbage at the Dojo. I ended up throwing out lots of moldy containers of fruit and many open containers of salsa along with misc expired items. I attempted to organize the remaining items i.e. beer and condiments and clean what was reachable. A couple of things I'd like dojo community help with -

Fridge -
Please mark the top of a shared containers of food with your initials and the date it was opened, this makes cleanup and safe sharing possible.

Recycling -
There are two containers in the kitchen, one is for garbage, and a smaller one for recyclable items. There is also a grocery bag for cardboard and paper. I'd like to continue to help recycle glass, plastic and cardboard from the dojo. If everyone could rinse empty beverage containers before recycling it will cut down on the smell, fruit flies and possible leaking of those items while they wait for me or someone else to take them away.

Dishes, utensils and glasses -
The sink area space is very limited. It would be nice if everyone would clean up as they use dishes, glasses and utensils. Those times when cleanup can't happen it would be nice if the two grey tubs located on top of the fridge or under the table could be used to temporarily store the dirty items until they can be cleaned. This will free up access to the sink and aide the next person that is cleaning. If possible please scrape and rinse items before utilizing these "overflow" containers.


Thanks everyone!
