What's that smell? (Days 4-6)

The guys who tore down the garage didn't turn all the breakers back on. Most of them, but not the one that the freezer was also on. Suprisingly, we had a lot of frozen items in the freezer and some ice that was even still frozen, so fortunately even a few days later things actually weren't stinky and were even cold. I'm not sure if they will be edible but there is some hope since not all of the ice was melted. What will REALLY piss me off is if Cheryl's strawberry-rhubarb pies that she made last summer are inedible. We're only down about $40 in food costs, but quite a bit in time that Cheryl or I put into the items that we froze for lazy dinners.

Nothing happened on days 4 or 5, but on day 6 the town building inspector came by to approve the excavation for the footings. The hole shows no sign of any unstable base, so we're signed off.
