I label everything which goes into the freezer but
there is a goblin in there who delights mucking up the system. Sometimes he blames it on my pen, saying that
I must have used a pen with runny ink.
Sometimes he isn’t that subtle – he just eats the labels. Whatever strategy he uses the result is the
same. I have mystery parcels in my
freezer.
Last night I was feeling adventurous so I dug one
parcel out. It had lost its label. It was something cheese topped so cauliflower
cheese, lasagne or macaroni cheese were all possibilities. Anyway I bunged it into the microwave and hey
presto – cheesy potato bake! And very
nice it was too!
Lesson number three – take even more care in freezer
labelling
Freezer goblins - I like it! It all adds to the excitement :p I use masking tape and a sharpie which seems to behave quite well. There are times of course when I just forget and it goes in without a label....
ReplyDeleteI have a goblin too. My Goblin likes to go fishing and when he comes home he climbs back into the freezer with a box of unlabled maggots for me to pull out and enjoy at a later date...
ReplyDeleteYou win - your goblin is even more troubelsome than mine!
