My fridge looked like a crime scene after my 'experimental soup' week

Last week, I decided to clear out my pantry and fridge by making a new soup every night. By Friday, the shelves held a jar of kimchi juice, half a can of coconut milk, a sad bunch of cilantro, a knob of ginger, and a single dried ancho chili. I stared at it all for a full ten minutes, trying to remember what my plan was. The final soup turned out okay, but the leftover bits look so random together. It's like a puzzle where I lost the box. Has anyone else opened their fridge and just had no clue what the plan was with the stuff inside?

My freezer has a bag of mystery broth from last winter. Still scared to open it.

Actually, that broth is probably fine if it stayed frozen. The real problem is freezer burn, which makes stuff taste bad but won't hurt you. Just give it a sniff test when it thaws. If it smells off, toss it.
