omg! the container is stupid huge. i have no idea how i will store this stuff, there's no room in my freezer. if i don't open it is there any chance it won't go bad overnight?

There's probably a lot of air in the container and some dry ice. You're supposed to open it and look at all the little boxes of goodies inside. Then you can decide which items you can take out of the boxes or not. And which items you will put in freezer and which in frig. Just looking at the white container itself, you're looking at a lot of air and packaging.
I'd give it all up, for just a little bit more.

12 friggin boxes of stuff in that styro box. it's all still frozen. the boxes are bigger than what's inside. a lot of wasted space and they don't label the little cryo bags either. so, tomorrow morning i'll be busy with my sharpie labeling weirdly shaped cuts of meat. the "top sirloin steaks" are square. what's up with that? i haven't bothered to open anything else but here's the rundown:
(4) boneless pork chops
(4) bacon wrapped filets
(2) pork chops
(10) omaha steak burgers
(4) chicken breasts
(2) filet mignon
(2) top sirloin steaks
(10) stuffed baked potatoes
(4) caramel apple tartlets
(4) choc molten lava cakes

that's a lot of meat and junk

'Oh, no!', I said, 'Disneyland burned down.' He cried and cried, but I think that deep down he thought it was a pretty good joke. I started to drive over to the real Disneyland, but it was getting pretty late.”

That's a thoughtful gift, Splinky.
"Peter Kiewit looked for three things in hiring people. He looked for integrity, intelligence and energy. And he said if a person didn’t have the first…that the latter two would kill him. Because if they don’t have integrity, you want ‘em dumb and lazy. You don’t want ‘em smart and energetic.”

Well, here's an idea. Are the items in gift style boxes? How about 'regifting' some of the items to your doormen and maintenance folks (in addition to some cash). I suspect they would be thrilled.

burger for breakfast. a little overground for my taste but very burgery in taste. i think my mom will be taking those. have a stuffed potato in the oven and will see if that will be the new house emergency side dish.

THe burgers make a nice bolognese sauce, speaking form experience! The chicken breasts could be flattened into paillards and broiled...

She left me some chicken, all of the filets and a couple of pork chops. They are all still in the freezer. She took the lava cakes and I baked the apple caramel tarts for the building night staff. I'll start eating them in the next week or so
