Weeds

Usually on Tuesday, my first day back from my day off, I am in the weeds. The weekend totally wipes out my mise en place. On Tuesdays I start over again and try to build it up just so I can make it through the weekend. This Tuesday I walked into work to discover that one of my freezers was turned off. Everything inside melted. I managed to salvage some frozen blueberries and cranberries and the frozen fruit purees but everything else had to be thrown away. I was very very pissed off. In that particular freezer I store all my choux items such as eclairs, cream puffs for the St. Honore, and paris brest. I just did a big batch the other day so all the trays were full. Boy was I pissed to have to throw it all away. Boy was I even more pissed to realize I had to put my work to a halt in order to clean out said freezer. It was a gross watery disgusting mess.

I forgot to mention. The freezer isn't a normal door open freezer. It's the kind with a lid and it is about 3.5 feet deep which makes for difficult cleaning.
