Oh My Gosh!!! I thought I was the only one with frozen black bananas and a massive amount of coffee mugs ( and let’s not even discuss the to go cups with the logos)–Is this a knitty thing? Sheri, if you put out a Loopy sized mug, I would just have to have one. Love all the new yarns.

I have the same problems as well. I’m a fairly new reader and first time poster. I have more of a problem, I find, with the refridgerator than the freezer, but that can get pretty bad, too. It’s a good thing I buy cheap left over containers, b/c I end up throwing more of them containing “mystery food” away…there’s no way I’m opening whatever it may be to save the $1.99.

Freezer wars - I actually did the same thing this weekend - it is amazing what you find in there…the good thing is now the entire refrigerator is really clean and has more room for the important things - Ice Cream and Chocolate!

Mother of Chief Knitter of Loopy Ewe must not have taught daughter the lesson on Freezer cleaning……sorry about that……and now I am off to my freezer for a “pitch and throw”….and yes, I too hve black bananas that were intended for banana bread.
This freezer cleaning frenzy seems to be a UNIVERSAL PROBLEM….so as Sheri always says…. DEAL WITH IT
Love ya, Sheri

And seriously, I’m scared of my freezer! Luckily or unluckily, we have to move every 2 or 3 years so I’m forced to clean it out atleast that many times !

You are so not alone with those freezer issues, I have two big freezers and the one above the refrig that all need cleaning out and defrosting. It’s too bad they have all the berries and such from this last summer. Oh well, maybe next year?

On the topic of canned pumpkin? At least a couple of years.

Sheri and Wonder Husband (whoa, a husband who reads his wife’s blog… priceless!),

DH and I moved to a new apartment and our freezer is empty (except for some ice cubes and an icepack). Would you like to rent some of this freezer space in exchange for some yarn??

Aww Honey - you posted! Yes, I forgot the blackened bananas (waiting to be made into Banana Bread, I might point out.) “Agony of meal planning and dread of grocery shopping” - don’t you think we just need to hire a cook? Or an “Alice” like the Brady Bunch had? Just wonderin’……

A good time to define Wonderful: Full of Wonder
I often wonder what’s for dinner and when it might occur. When I dig into the freezer around 8:30 pm, I wonder why there are 36 meals worth of food carefully wrapped in nearly Loopy fashion.

Finally, I wonder why the agony of meal planning and dread of grocery shopping do not motivate a normally efficient, business-minded person to explore the place most likely to contain a time and cost-saving solution. Could it be a fear of blackened bananas? (7 this time, not listed above)

LIfe is too short to worry about freezer issues!! There are much bigger issues to worry about.. like finishing that Log Cabin quilt of yours for Pete’s sake!! But good for Wonder Husband for tackling something that must have bothered him. Say ‘Thank You’ and pick up your needles and knit!!
