Having used the chest freezer to store stuff while we waited for the new
freezer I realized how badly it was in need of defrosting and purging.
holy cow there is a lot of mysteries in there. There are containers of
stuff that I don't even know what they are. There are several half
loaves of very dried out old bread, old yogurt containers with various
soups and sauces.

It's a nice cold day here, so everything from the freezer is sitting in
laundry baskets in my car. The ice should be falling off the sides
pretty soon. I think that only about half that stuff is going back into it.
