[Avodah] 2 fridgies

RGD corrects me, reminding me that R' Wikler actually advised this because,
as RnTK says, there could be milk on the shelf, and the paper towel
prevents the milk from being absorbed in the (hot) pot, which would be a
real problem.

Personally, we try to avoid putting hot pots into the fridge, so as not 
to overburden the motor trying to cool them.
