Our Refrigerator Wasn't quite so infinite today.

Our very full fridge contained an enormous package of strawberries perched on a carton of 18 eggs. I took out the egg carton, used the last two eggs, threw the carton away, and tried to put the strawberries back in the fridge. They would not fit!
The problem: When perched on top of the eggs, the strawberries hovered over a number of other food containers. Now, when I tried to set them directly on a shelf, those other containers blocked the way. Eventually, reorganizing just about everything, I made room.
But If I'd had any sense, I would have put the empty egg carton back in the fridge and put the strawberries back on top of that carton.
