1003 Ruined groceries from the freezer and fridge
October 3
We'd hoped the power would be back on this morning when we got up, but it wasn't. I drove to work and tried to charge on a Blink station, but I found out that only ONE of the six chargers on campus is functioning. I really wish those stations had a number to call on them or something. I have no idea how to report them as busted.
This morning we filmed some people blending spinach in the Chilton test kitchen for the holiday video. This afternoon I met with Pam Padilla about using her lab as the opening shot for the video as well. She was surprisingly stoked about it! I had to leave work early to make sure I got my package from RED. The multitool I ordered from them back in April(?) finally came! The thing is actually super cool.
Less cool is the fact that when I got home,t he power was still out! I opened the fridge for the first time since the outage, and it was room temperature inside. I had no choice but to toss all the ruinables. I checked the freezer and it was the same deal. I did find some chicken in there with a freeze-by date of October 2012, so maybe it was time for a forced clean-out. This is everything that was ruined by the power outage.
So I guess we learned our lesson: Eat out every day and never buy groceries! Right? YES! Sounds right to me!
