2 Week ends ago, I went out to the garage to get something from the freezer . . .
As I opened the door I noticed there was a light on in the garage . . . .
Then to my HORROR - The freezer door was open and had been left open for at least 12 hours.
My freezer does have an alarm that sounds if the internal temperature reaches a dangerously low level. . . .
The switch was turned OFF.
Thankfully everything was still solid - except for the freezer jams and the 2 cartons of peppermint ice cream on the door . . . which had dripped down everything and puddled on the floor.
NO MORE ICE CREAM SANDWICHES FOR MY KIDS!
At least not keeping them in the outside freezer - They are going to have to be inside where I can supervise the getting!
This inspired me to be better prepared.
So this week, when hamburger went on sale, I canned 40 lbs of ground beef.
If the freezer does go out, at least I'll still have some meat!
It looks disgusting, but it works for everything except meatloaf and hamburgers!
