Sometimes an odd request comes your way.

I was trying to nap and a family friend texted us wanting to know if we wanted a free whole frozen chicken. "How odd!", I thought.
Well, it turns out there is a local food bank that serves the developmentally disabled. They thought they were ordering 28 chickens, one for each of their families. What they got though was 28 cases of 8 chickens each, all frozen together in the case bag. 224 whole chickens. They have no idea what to do with them.
So Ann texted me because I'm a pretty good problem solver. Once we figured out we'd have to defrost them all to pull them apart, I said they'd have to be cooked up, shredded and re-frozen pretty quickly.
So I called Le Soupe, a kitchen that takes discarded grocery store items and makes soup, etc. to distribute to those in need. They were interested, so I put the two parties together. Hope it works out.
I guess I don't get a nap.

That was a great idea.

I used to take naps more regularly. Man, they were great. It's hard for me to do now because... excuses (kids, work, etc) but I hope to get back to that routine again. And if I began to take a nap and someone called me to ask if I wanted a whole frozen cock, I would figured I was in a nightmare featuring Jon's sister. Either way, good job Mik!

Empty out of bag into an ice chest with enough water to cover the chicken. Shut the lid and check about 18 hours later. Sometimes in about the next 16 hours or so, you should be able to pull them apart. Pat dry and refreeze the individual chickens. Use within 60 days or so.
