Question of the Day Saturday Dec 14

I am now the proud owner of a fridge with a freezer that is bigger than an ice-block maker! 

I'm so looking forward to cooking and storing stuff.

So I thought I'd find out:

  What do you keep in your freezer?

                          

Congratulations! We have two freezers: a refrigerator/freezer combination in the kitchen, and an upright freezer in the cellar. DH is an avid gardener, so both are full of fruit and vegetables, as well as meat, bread, ice cream, etc.. The bottom drawer in the upright contains some plastic bottles of liquid for my e-cigarettes. That might sound strange, but I actually know people who have small freezers used exclusively for their e-liquids. :lol3:

97% Hare today meat. And maybe space for one human chicken. >.>

Yay you!   Enjoy that new fridge/freezer!

We've had a chest freezer now for years and years...in fact, our old one bit the dust last year (I think it was) and we bought a new one. When Mom passed away, nobody wanted their upright freezer, so we took that. We keep meat in the upright and our garden stuff in the chest. 

And now we have the new fridge with the larger bottom freezer.

But honestly, I freeze everything. Right now, there's a ton of applesauce, blueberries, various soups, stews, and chili, pasta sauce, pans of apple dumplings, some apple pies, pizza dough balls, yeast rolls, several kinds of muffins, cookies, and a few containers of ice cream. I have a small space for dried foods, too, now, for the mushrooms, tomatoes, raisins, onions.  Plus, whole chickens, bl/sl breasts, chicken legs and thighs,  two large turkeys (from this year), ground beef, two large pork butts, chuck roasts, etc. I can go on. Rick has often said he thinks we could eat for quite a few months out of the freezer (except for salads, milk and eggs). When our son first moved out into his own apartment, he'd come home to do his grocery shopping. And when he first got married, he still worked up in this area, so he came home every day for lunch.

As long as the power stays on, we'll never starve.

Congrats on new fridge!  I love new kitchen things or all kinds.

We have 2 freezers in the house, the one in the kitchen fridge (bottom, it's a french door), and we have a small fridge in the basement which has a freezer on top.  I don't usually store too much overall, in fact the one downstairs now is empty other than the canister from my ice cream maker (which I always keep frozen and ready).  We use that one mostly for overflow, like when we have company and can't fit everything into the one upstairs.  That one typically has various things to make for dinner and right now has chicken breasts (a lot of them), turkey burgers, chopped meat, venison sausages, might be a piece of salmon in there somewhere, pie crusts (you never know when you might want to make a quiche), bagels, a big bag of homemade chicken stock, a pint of ice cream (not home made), a bag of frozen peas that I use as an ice pack, some good quality breaded fish fillets, a couple of frozen dinners for emergency purposes, raviolis and some rolls for the burgers.  I don't think there is much more than that other than ice cubes.  

Pretty much, we won't starve either - I can always find something in there to make a decent meal and then some even though I don't keep it stuffed.
