The contents of my large freezer
I stalled all evening before finally trudging down to the basement to tackle this freezer.
I took EVERYTHING out and put it on the floor. I sorted into piles, threw out obviously freezer burned stuff, and put it all back. The freezer needs to be defrosted, but I'll deal with that later.
Here are the "after" pictures. I was too humiliated to post the "before" ones.

I did it. I conquered and organized the big freezer. I also discovered we have a lot of cow in there.
I will be making stock as I use up the meat in the freezer. The spaces left vacant will fill with containers of stock. I love stock. It's healthy and tasty. Good stuff.
Next on the agenda is the dry goods pantry area(s).
Tomorrow is another day.
