Refreezing Thawed Meat

By StellaBell

Thawing Meat in a tray.Generally, refreezing thawed meat is not recommended. This is because the quality of the meat will be reduced in this process. Also, if the meat was not thawed in the fridge, there is a strong likelihood that bacteria has started to grow on the meat.

Today's Questions
Value of a 1953 Wurlitzer Model 1550 Jukebox
I would appreciate an estimate for this jukebox. It is in perfect working condition.
Little Black Bugs in Bathroom Around Tub
We have have these little black bugs that appear only on the tile around our over sized tub in the bathroom. They kind of look like a flea, but do not jump and are dead or barely moving, but keep appearing. There is a little off colored yellow larvae now and again around them too. We thought initially they were coming from a large plant and we took that outside last spring.
Childcare Business Name Ideas
My name is Wyakie, but my nicknames are Squirt and Cutie Pie! I need help finding a name for my family childcare.
Bleached and Colored Hair Is Falling Out
I bleached my hair once, and it turned green, teal, pink, and white. Yep you read that right. So I bleached it again and then I dyed it a pastel purple. Then the nightmare began and it started falling out left and right. I don't know what to do and I am freaking out!
Name of an Old Horror Movie
I can't find this old movie. It's a scary movie that takes place in a psych ward I think with cells in the basement. There is a bunch of crazy people in their own cell. There's a cell way down the hallway and a patient in there, but it's always dark so you can never see the patient's face. A man continuously goes and talks to the patient and in the end I think the patient turns out to be him.
Permed Hair Flopped in One Day
I got my first perm in almost 10 years as I just grew out a pixie. Perms are not as popular these days, but my hair looked awesome when done. At my consultation prior to the appointment, and the day of, my only concern was wanting to be able to wear my hair curly. I expressed wanting more than just wave, I wanted curl.
