Lost: one bunch of Swiss chard

I bought a bunch of Swiss chard a couple Sundays ago. I had been on the hunt for some for the past couple months, as they don't seem to stock it at my regular grocery stores. I finally found some at the Sweetbay, the weekend before last and snatched it up. I was making creamed chard this week! (Sounds dirty, don't it?)

Then something happened: I couldn't find the darn stuff. I searched the fridge, through the veggie bins, on all the shelves ... I don't really have the biggest refrigerator. I just couldn't figure out what happened to it.

Fast forward to Wednesday. I was cooking dinner, and I went into the freezer for the shrimp. Lo and behold:


Hard as a freaking rock. And then it thawed, and was super soggy. My poor Swiss chard. I guess I'll be taking another pilgrimage to Sweetbay sometime soon ...
