Is that wrong of me to like them so much?

Also - you're lucky that I thought it was too rude to post William Hung's version of "She bangs!" on here - thinking of you out on the driveway trying to defrost the bag of chicken breasts! LOL

Lol, I ended typing a post to your last response and thought it sounded a little dirty(even though I didn't mean it too) and backspaced on the meat cleaver post and left it simple. heh.

IDK, I might check into some help maybe...?

Is this a Canadian thing?

Meat cleavers are global!

If you had one, you'd prob understand lol Great for taking out the frustrations! *whack whack whack* LOL

Sounds better than banging them on the kitchen counter, I suppose.

Nah, I feel immoral talking about this even since I'm a vegetarian.

Stick a butter knife between the two and bang the entire clump onto the countertop. It'll force the knife down into the chicken breasts and split them.

You should be able to defrost the meat in the refrigerator. Just take your time to defrost it. Once the chicken breasts are separated wrap each on in some saran wrap and refreeze in a freezer bag.

Did this once with a bag of lamp chops and worked out well.

I grew up with the notion that once meat is defrosted if had to be cooked before refreezing. Turns out it can be defrosted in the refrigerator and then refrozen.

I'm a 'butter knife' girl... just like frozen hamburgers... slide the knife in and pry them apart.

If it is 'extra stuck' I run warm water over the butter knife and I can get it through the ice, once I am in, it's all pry pry baby!

I get nervous about the freeze, thaw, refreeze thing.
