Q: I stupidly left a Coke bottle inside my freezer all night and it burst. Pieces of frozen Coke are everywhere, all over the frozen peas and fish, and blocking the lowest drawer. I cleared a lot of them and now the ice seems to be thawing because the freezer won't stop dripping. I have about 12 hours to fix this before my mother gets home and goes berserk, what do I do? It's not just washing, I also need to stop the ice thawing.
A: Darth Vadar and Lark are correct. I would like to add that after you have rinsed the coke off the frozen items, put them in a container (a bucket or bowl) and cover them with a wet cloth. Keep wetting the cloth if it dries too quickly. This will delay the defrosting of the frozen food. To speed up the defrosting process of the freezer. Fill a container with very hot water and place it in the freezer. Once it cools down, do it again. Shove a towel below the freezer to catch any water that drips out. You can do it! 12 hours is more than enough time. You can't get out of defrosting the freezer...the ice is preventing the insulation and it will drip till your Mother gets home.
