Can You Fit a Cow, a Chicken, and a Pig in YOUR Freezer?

Today Tim's work gave them a little "thanks for reaching your goals" bonus. It wasn't money, but it worked just as well. They did what they called a "Dash for Groceries" at the Macey's across the road from their building. According to what department you were in you were allotted so much money to spend on groceries that you grabbed from around the store in 2 minutes flat. ONLY if your team met their goals. Cool huh? Well Tim's team met all their goals and then some so each person their team got 250$ to spend on groceries. Nice! I'm used to a 100-150$ a month budget for groceries, so this was a big deal for me. Tim and I decided it would be best if the majority of the money went to big ticket items that we like to eat. AKA Animals. Meat. Ground Beef, chicken, pork chops, pork roast, beef roast, steak. Ah yeah I said STEAK and lots of it. Anyways, we had gone to Macey's beforehand and got a feel for what their prices were like and found out that we could pre-order dollar amounts of meat and they would have it precut and packaged and in a cart waiting for us by the meat counter. Well duh. Who wouldn't do that? Unless of course, you're a vegetarian, then, well, ...yeah anyways, the big day comes and Tim is all psyched about running through a grocery store like it's his wildest dream come true. (Little did he know that not only would he be able to do it, but he'd be able to do it 3 times.) Our meat is ordered and we have a plan on where we're going and what we're grabbing. Our buzzer sounds and we book it to the meat counter. Tim, obviously leaving me in the dust because, let's face it, short legs are not meant for runnin'. We grab our meat cart and it has a HUGE box in it already. We grabbed a bunch of frozen things to finish off our 250$ and we made it to the front with 5 seconds to spare. I learned that two minutes is actually a LONG time and you really don't have to run especially if you know what you're shopping for. So we got to the front and we were only 12$ over our 250$ so yeah I'll the difference. We get it all home and start re packing the HUGE box of animal product to be frozen. Keep in mind I live in an apartment. With APARTMENT sized appliances including the fridge and freezer. So as we're re-packing all this meat, Tim is telling me we can definitely fit it all. "All you need is a little organization" he keeps telling me. So this is all the meat repacked and in the freezer.

And another angle just to illustrate how far "organizing" was going to get us.

Oh did I mention there was all this left to be put into the freezer as well? Yeah. Organize THAT.


Needless to say we had to enlist the services of Tim's parents freezer for a while at least until we start getting low on frozen stuff. It'll be good and it'll be used once I start going to school in March cause Tim will be in charge of getting Riley and himself fed without the convenience of having a car. All I can say is that it's a good thing animals taste so good otherwise those pictures might be considered gross. Hello PETA!

So long everyone! Off to bed! Stay Large!(A little inside joke for you:))
