Until it sat in a trash can until trash day (yes, gross...but what else do you do with spoiled meat?!).

yep.


This morning Todd grossed out neighbors up and down the street as he sat the rancid freezer food out for the trash guy. along with warning note and a few extra bucks.

Memory verse for today: Ps. 34:19 "A righteous man may have many troubles, but the Lord delivers him from of all of them."

Today he delivered us by way of a grossly underpaid garbage man.
