There is a monster living in my freezer. It inhales copious amounts of water vapour and spits it out cold and solid. The ice buries my food and leaves no room for more.
Soon the monster’s regurgitations grow too big for the confines of my freezer and seep toward the fridge below. It means I can no longer shut my freezer door. I am moved to action.
The hair dryer cord isn’t long enough and the hot air can destroy only very little of the outermost surface of frost. It takes too long for a pot of hot water to fight the consequences of the monster.
Then it hits me: heat pot quickly without water, press firmly onto ice. The sizzling sounds and smoke eminating from the defeated solid make me feel like a superhero.
After three hours of battling, the freezer is mine again.
That is awesome. I need to do that too!! You switch the power off first right?
