what I’m supposed to do with THIS?

And no, we can’t eat it.  There is absolutely NO flavor left in that chicken carcass and the vegetables.  They have been in my Crock-Pot for almost 24 hours, making a stock.  We had a roast chicken recently, and I picked the leftover meat off the carcass and am going to use it to make a chicken pot pie tonight.  But good cooks never throw away the carcass, at least not right away.  Not until the get every last bit out of it by cooking it up to make chicken stock.

The slow-cooker method is the best way I’ve found for this.  It makes an excellent stock, and you don’t have to watch it, with a Crock-Pot, you can even safely leave the house and have it going.  Put carcass in a 5 quart of more slow-cooker.  Add some onion, celery carrots, a couple of bay leaves, some fresh thyme and parsley, and a few whole black peppercorns.  Add water to cover it all, put the lid on, and cook on LOW, all day, overnight, at least 12 hours.  When it’s done, strain, let stock cool and refrigerate until ready to use.  Discard the solids.

By the time it’s done, all of the flavors of the carcass and the herbs and veggies will have gone into the stock, so the remains are good for nothing but the garbage.

BUT…remember THIS?  The “garbage police” say that we are not allowed to put garbage out until after dusk the night before our pickup day, which in our case is Tuesday.  Today is Wednesday.  That means that this is going to be stinking up our kitchen until next Monday night, when we can legally put it out.

See?  It says this right on the stupid bag!

We COULD try putting the stinky trash in a regular bag and put it out in the can, with the intention of putting it in the expensive bag just before trash day.  However, if we get caught, if the garbage police come to check, they will give the landladies a ticket.  And the way they will collect is that they will be adding the $50 ticket to their property taxes.

I do not want to get blamed for any tickets.

This whole thing is such bullshit.  How can I recycle THAT up there ^^^?  We can’t put it in the recycle bin, we can’t flush it down the toilet, we have no place else to put it beween now and Monday night, what the FUCK do these assholes expect people to do?

The city does not return my phone calls or respond to my emails.  THEY DO NOT GIVE A SHIT, as long as they keep collecting our money.  I hate every single person who ever thought that these new garbage rules were a good idea.

If I knew I could get away with it, I’d put that stuff in the colander into a plastic grocery bag, and dump it on the porch of Mayor Richard Howard, douchebag supreme.  But he’s a rich asshole, he probably has video surveillance and I’d get caught.

Thnis bullshit law needs to be repealed, and SOON!
