4. Check if electricity has stopped during your absence.

Put a glass of cold water upside down in your freezer before you leave for several days. If, on your return, the glass is empty, it means that you have run out of electricity for a long time and that you have to throw away what is in your refrigerator. You can also try the cup tricks : You place a cup of water in your freezer. When it is perfectly frozen, place a coin on top and leave it in your freezer. If the piece has fallen at bottom of the cup, it means all the food has thawed and you should throw it away. But if the room is up or in the middle of the cup, then the food is probably still good.

3. Kill all bacteria stuck to your favorite red lipstick.
