Loved your post. I thought my mother was the only person who defrosted hamburger meat on the counter. I don’t think that she ever looked for an expiration date on any jar or can in her entire life. We joke with her about it. It’s a miracle all her kids are still alive! LOL.

The only problem my mother had was her great dane would put her head on the counter and take a frozen roast and eat it. It took my mother a while to figure that one out. LOL
