Tulip Bulbs in the fridge now

I put the Tulip Bulbs in the fridge yeserday. In Northern California, winter is mild that it's recommended to leave bulbs in the fridge for 6-8 weeks before planting, because most bulbs need a dormant period of time. Last year, according to my journal, I planted them outside at the end of November. They did well in the spring, so I'll do the same this year.
