Today, I Defrosted My Upright Freezer

[Tilly2]

What a difference it has made. I have just been able to take some frozen bread rolls out without having to get a sledgehammer to the drawer to close it again. I will not leave it so long next time.

What jobs do you put off doing? Please don't mention ironing because that goes without saying!

Defrosting a BIG chest freezer....sometime soon, hopfully!

[Psybbo]

Sorting out the airing cupboard, OH does the freezer, although I do wash the drawers and shelf.

[Tilly2]

Gawd! How do you go about that? Do you have to scoop all the water out with a bucket?

[mazie]

Cooker cleaning Grrrr

[Tilly2]

Why do airing cupboards get in such a mess? It's one of life's mysteries is that, sibs.

[Tilly2]

I have a self cleaning cooker. No problem there, Mazie.

[gingejbee]

No, Tilly...everything is in baskets (8 of them)...take them out and the ice can be easily(?) removed from the smooth walls. No water involved!

We have a self defrosting fridge/freezer. There is never any ice build-up at all. I have no idea how it works. I suspect it's some kind of magic which shifts the ice into another dimension. Something to do with quantum physics and string theory.

Cleaning my oven, I do it pretty regularly but I hate doing it.

[mazie]

How do the shelves clean themselves Tilly?

[Tilly2]

Ah, they don't Mazie but I use those Oven Pride bag thingies and pop them in there. They come out like new.

[Tilly2]

Ginge, when you knock the ice off, it must drop into the bottom of the freezer. Or do you catch it all?

[Tilly2]

I wish mu freezer was a magic one like Graham's.

[askyourgran]

I've got a frost free fridge/freezer, not bad, it's just chasing the peas that are lounging in the bottom of the drawers ...escapees geddit.

[Tilly2]

Got it! ........and got them!

[mazie]

I use them Tilly, they are excellent

[gingejbee]

...yes, chips off in huge pieces, drops to the bottom and scooped out...long arms needed!

[Tilly2]

Thanks, ginge. I'm asking because we are thinking of getting a freezer to put in the garage. I don't think I'm tall enough for a chest freezer.

[DaisyNonna]

Tilly, thank goodness I am not the only one who has to resort to 'thingy'.

[sherrardk]

Tilly, I've got some upside down baskets in my chest freezer so that I can tech stuff.
