Long day today - freezer, auction and stuff

Came into work today to find that the defrost timer on our Ice Cream freezer defrost timer had failed yesterday and stuck in the defrost cycle for a few hours. The Ice Cream never completely melted but it did get soft so it now has ice crystals. About 40 1/2 gallons of it. I had to run into town anyway as I was the winning bider for a bunch of explosion-proof light fixtures. These are really nice in sort of a steam-punk fashion and I was not disappointed. SCORE! for $20+. After picking up the fixtures and getting lunch, I went about 20 miles North to a local dairy and picked up 36 1/2 gallons of assorted ice cream and ten pounds of dry ice. After unloading at the store, I called the local Indian tribe's Social Services department -- they run a food bank. The didn't have room for the ice cream in their freezer but they were more than happy to get a couple of turkeys and a ham that had gone out of date. These were frozen and as such, were fine for consumption, we just couldn't sell them. Went out for dinner and a couple stiff mixed drinks and just now sitting down to read the internet. Predicting an early bedtime... Posted by DaveH at March 26, 2009 6:47 PM | TrackBack
