My freezer Inventory

I am not good at labelling
I always think I will remember.
Had plenty a surprise meal (and I don't mind at all) :hyper:

We now keep Avery labels clamped to the freezer for ease of labelling. Several surprise meals didn't quite work out as intended.
 
I don't label either. To be honest, the freezer isn't very full, because we get fresh vegetables, meat, fish etc. all year round. There's really no seasonal stuff which requires freezing; with the possible exception of green mangoes for making chutney. As for special offers - unusual.
 
Here goes:

Top shelf:
Biscuit dough
Bread bits
Doughnuts
Fry pie
Gougeres
Pound cake (for crumbs)
Scone dough
Scones
Waffle
White cake
Butter
Donauwelle cake
Fruits of the Forest stollen
White frosting
Nutmeg

Bottom shelf:
Pizza Uno pizza
Fresh cranberries
Mixed berries
1/4-lb hamburger balls
Bacon
Breakfast links (Aldi)
Breakfast links (Curly's)
Breakfast links (generic)
Breakfast sausage (roll)
Boneless-skinless chicken breast
Chicken tenders (raw)
Chicken thighs
Chicken wings
Fish fillets
Ground beef (90/10)
Knackwurst
Lebanon bologna
Meatball mix
Pork ribs
Prime rib
Thin steak
Trail bologna
Hash brown patties
Onion rings
Pearl onions
Tater tots

Good idea though so I'll wait till it's raining again. 👍

Our freezer is up on bricks because on the rare occasions that it does rain, the garage usually floods... so waiting for the rain before emptying the freezer here isn't the best idea!

Ours is up on a wooden pallet for the same reason. We have a drain in the middle of the garage, but if rain comes fast and furious it floods anyway.

No drain, but when it's really bad, I just open the human door and it drains through that, but it still leaves about a 1.5m wide puddle of standing water at the back the entire width of the double garage and there is only 1 electrical socket in the entire garage (it was built by the farmer back in the 60's). The location of that socket controls where appliances get put.

Our garage is sloped where the ground is higher at the wall edges and sloped down in the center where the drain is--which is right underneath my car. When I have to go to work right after a heavy rain I have to take a big step to avoid walking in the puddle getting into my car.

But yeah, even with the freezer being at a higher level, when that rain comes heavy it could possibly seep to that back wall, which is why we put it on the pallet...bricks would have been good, too, we just didn't have any and the pallet has held up well. It's a smallish chest freezer. I want one of those taller ones with drawers in it eventually.

Our wood is on the pallets in the woodshed for exactly the same reason. It's uphill on the garage by about a centimetre or two. So anything in the garage has usually come via the woodshed first, when it actually bothers to rain around here.
 
Every time I update my freezer contents, it prompts me to eat out of the freezer for the next week or so, so from the list above, I’ve already used up:

Fry pie
Gougeres
Waffle
Donauwelle cake
Pizza
1/4-lb hamburger balls
Breakfast links (Curly's)

You’ll be thrilled to know…I’m heating up a mystery meal today - I think it must be some sort of soup, but it could be a sauce, idk…

Well…after examining it, I decided it was most likely bean-and-ham soup, so into a saucepan over medium heat, where it stuck…and stuck…and stuck some more.

Finally deduced that it was
turkey meatball mix
which by that point was thoroughly stuck to my saucepan and unsalvageable, so into the trash with that, which didn’t even bother me that much because I wouldn’t have wanted that anyway.
