I had the same thing happen with my freezer - it died the morning after I put a whole pig and a lamb in it.

I have mushrooms in it now.<br /><br />CR - You know, I'd do it except for the fact that the NYS Health Dept. is probably trolling the blogs. I don't need a visit from them.<br /><br />Mama Pea - I love your freezers, too - especially the one with the Papa Pea decoration on top!<br /><br />Mama Tea - You're invited!

I think it would be fun! <br />We have lots of construction going on here too. Guess it's that time of year and some of the roads really need it!<br />I often have a "to-do" list that is laughable too!

Just think how good they will be over yogurt! (I once tried to dry them and wound up with black marbles that were inedible.)<br /><br />I'm also going to be dehydrating more veggies this year. Their shelf life is longer (than freezing) and they take up so much less space and we won't have to depend on power for the freezer.
