This is how I defrost:
-I decide what I want to make for dinner the night before. -Then I spend bedtime yelling, cajoling, and threatening and failing miserably to get the toddlers to at least stay in their beds and not throw things at each other. -I go to bed exhausted and having forgotten all about meat and dinner. -I wake up the next morning, get out the whip and chair and proceed to roust the toddlers out of bed and get them ready for school. -I remember that I was supposed to take something out for dinner as I'm driving them to school. -I get home, do a few cartwheels while the house is empty and then clean it all while laughing because it will look like a tornado hit it as soon as they get back. -I go pick the monsters up, and take them to a park to run them to the point of exhaustion. -I get them home and make them lay down, despite the *But I CANNOT lie down* protests. -I come down stairs, make myself some coffee and glance at the clock HOLY CRAP ITS 2 OCLOCK AND I DIDN'T TAKE ANYTHING OUT FOR DINNER!!!!! -I dash to the freezer, pull out the first thing my hand touches, plunk it into a bowl of water and pray it defrosts by 5. |
