Jul. 20th, 2005 10:55 amFitting 10 bagels into a freezer the size of a microwave (a freezer that incidentally is full of nuts, blueberries, ice cube trays, veggie burgers, and a very large bag of cornmeal) was not an easy task. I had to eat a bagel or two* in order to make the remainder fit. Shame, that.
Of course, I realized that there would have been much more room if my freezer weren't completely encrusted in ice. Which means I need to defrost it. Which is made more complicated by the fact that it's one of those lameass "freezer compartments", inside the fridge.
Has anyone had any experience defrosting these? I read the instructions on the back of the door, and it seems like I'm going to have to leave the fridge off, and the fridge door open. Which means the rest of my food will...go bad? How long does it take to defrost the fridge anyway? I suppose it'll be that much quicker in this heat, but the food will also spoil that much faster. Maybe I'll just see how much of it I can eat before the weekend, and do it then.
*I had a poppy seed one with veggie ham, avocado and sundried tomato havarti for dinner, and a sesame one with cream cheese and black currant spread for...dessert? Shut up.
