How to Clean Out Your Deep Freezer

1. Spend the previous 3 months stalking the meat sales and filling up freezer with a minimum of half a cow, 25 chickens and two pig tenderloins.

2. Go on vacation for 6 days. The 6 hottest days of the year.

3. Come home and notice the drool from freezer in hot garage.

4. Throw out hundreds of dollars of food. Mutter nice curse words.

5. Get to tenderloin. Not so nice curse words.

6. "Hello, Sister Taylor!" Stop muttering curse words until nice neighbor girl leaves garage.

7. Try singing Mary Poppins "Spoon Full of Sugar."

8. Get shoe stuck in sticky Otter Pop juice. Start cursing again.

9. Serve spaghetti and Prego sauce for dinner without meat.

    I feel for your loss - same thing happened to us a few years back - but because of a power loss....

    Vegetarian diets are good - for a day or two!

    Ohhhhhh, ohhhhhh, ahhhhh...Yikes...There would have been a string of nasty words flying out of my mouth too, how absolutely frustrating! {and disgusting to clean I am sure!} Sounds like something that would happen to me...

    Spoiled tenderloin never hurt anyone.

    I have total sympathy--this happened to us last August. Horrible, horrible, horrible!

    Love, love, love that picture.

    So sorry about your freezer. Sucks.

    BTW, the book arrived today (the H.W's one!). I'm still waiting for the other package to get out here.

    A new follower and thanks for the sweet comments on Ch-Ch-Changes. No not good genes nor a young bride just near sighted so I tend not to notice what's in the mirror.
    The same thing happened to me with the freezer and though I stomped around muttering and moaning about all the labor and time that had gone into my garden vegetables(oh and there's that nice venison tenderloin that my brother gave me),it was nice for the next month or so. I could actually go to the deep freeze and find something without having to dig. We'll see how long it takes to fill it again. The house is moderately empty with the youngest back in college so maybe I can keep it manageable, at least till the holidays.

Wordful Wednesday and Clever Much? Rarely!

Sometimes my brilliance blinds me! Speaking of brilliance, before we continue this discussion, if you are my mother in law, stop reading. Walk away. At least until after Christmas. Seriously. My own mother doesn't read my blog. I think it has something to do with words like "socially awkward" and "mortifying." She knows me. She doesn't have to read about me. She can just pretend like I turned out normal. Anyway, if the mother-in-law has exited the website, check out what she's getting for Christmas! TADA! I'd like to give a special shout out to the internet and whatever site I was cruising through last week for planting this idea into my head. Usually not this creative and I definitely don't know where I got the energy to take the kids out for pictures. Or go to Walmart for the frame. And Robert's for the mat. Costco for the pictures.  Yeah, I painted the frame, too. So not my style. Anymore. I also ordered a canvas print for my husband but I...

I am being published!

I know! It just reeks of excitement, doesn't it?  I know what you are thinking. "Who would publish that woman's thoughts?" The answer is a lovely little outfit called www.blog2print.com. In other words, I haven't been discovered. I am no closer to being a published author than I was yesterday EXCEPT that by Christmas I will be the proud owner of my very own blog book! I know. It's a little anticlimactic but here's the cool part. My friend, Becki, found me entertaining and directed me to a blog called www.josikilpack.blogspot.com.  She posted a little coupon code for 20% off which was supposed to end last week. Apparently, the code is still good and I saved $14. That said, you know it isn't exactly the cheapest way to get published but it's the best price I could find on publishing my blog!  And it requires very little technical know-how.  And that, my friends, tickles my heart. And, for a small price of your integrity and dignity, I will share the ...
