<DIV>"Simple, non-strenuous activities that are done <EM>routinely and
effortlessly by people as a matter of course</EM> (without any conscious
thought that the act is a beneficial act of preparation) are in fact not
Hachono, even when intended for post-Shabbos needs." </DIV>
<DIV>[brings fridge as example]</DIV>
<DIV>"Hachono is forbidden only when the Hachono-activity by its very nature
bespeaks preparation. Commonplace activities in which the concept of
preparing for anything is remote from people's minds are not Hachono. In
such situations, there is no preception of Tircha." </DIV>
