    Defrosting the freezer

    Is anyone like me who leaves defrosting until there is enough ice to film an Ice Age production? Every time I promise myself never to leave it so long next time ... but I do. Oh, well, one down, one to go.

    Chris
    p.s. Bobby doesn't mind, he likes eating the ice clumps! (not all of them of course)

    I'd always thought it was "normal" ice, because the ice forms from moisture in the air (from opening and closing the freezer door, etc) so unless you have toxins floating around in your house its safe

    My dogs love eating it, too! Less mess for me to clean up!

    GUILTY here
    Our freezer has 6 drawers; it usually gets defrosted when the drawers cannot be opened or closed anymore

    LOL! Oh Chris, you're giving me a bad conscience now - I know exatcly what you mean! I say the same every time I defrost.

    Remind me, within the next few weeks, I HAVE to do the fridge!

    Defrosted the other freezer on Tuesday (the one with the fridge), Bob and Ebby had to investigate.

    Ebby just had a quick look.


    Bob was a bit more nosy of course.


    Chris

    BTW Sara & Johanna, just you stop trying to temp my Bobby away from me!

    Oh Booobbbbbb........I've got home made doggie treats, and a big car for car rides, and lots of parks nearby where we can go for walkies, and lots of tennis balls...and....and.....you just know that you are ALL MINE!!!!

    ...and just to stay on track with this thread, my fridge and freezer are screaming for me to clean them out.

    I feel very virtuous. I defrosted ours a couple of weeks ago (when it wouldn't give me my ice cubes back).

    The last time that happened to me I found a clump of hair...

    that led to a leg,

    then a tail..

    Ears

    A Trunk!

    I thought to myself, "what is luggage doing in the freezer......"


    It was a woolly mammoth.

    Hey you, don't tell me there's no hope at all -
    Together we stand
    Divided we fall.

    I laugh, therefore? I am.
