So you buy a nice two shelf bookcase but it’s wobbly and you know it won’t hold much. I’ve recently gotten one and my solution was to put L-brackets on it. After installing about 8 of these brackets at the cojoining parts of the shelving, it is now completely stable and ready for use.

    Do you have any tips for keeping lettuce and other leaves such as spinach form spoiling too quick ?

      If you’re buying packaged stuff, buy it in the hard plastic containers, not the soft plastic bags. The hard plastic protects it much better during transit, and can easily last a week for me before getting soggy and gross.

      Lettuce is hard admittedly. Personally I don’t eat it. It’s mostly water, not very nutritious, and also a pretty good vector for pesticides given the edible surface area.

      Spinach should keep for 2 or 3 days. Do as they did before refrigeration: put it in a dark, dry, cool (low) place. Shop regularly in small quantities - people alone in apartments tend to be in big cities where this is possible.
