I have been presented with a challenge. We have a 5lb block of frozen shrimp. There are usually only two of us around, so 5lbs isn't going to get eaten all at once - defrosting the whole thing isn't an option (I think). Any bright ideas how to break this down into reasonable portions without sacrificing a bunch?

Throw the whole darn thing in a clean sing/bucket full of water. Pay attention to it, it defrosts fast and quickly referees in smaller portions.
the actual shrimps will stay frozen enough.
i wouldn’t worry about the defrost and referees.

Do not stab at it with a knife. A math teacher of mine had a funny story about that ending in an emergency room visit and reduced function of a hand.

Favorite Cook - Sausage, any kind of sausage!
Never try to pry overcooked (and seriously stuck) brownies out of a baking pan with a steak knife, bone out a deer shoulder with 14 inch butcher knife, sweat a copper fitting while it is attached to wooden subflooring, pull a "dead" squirrel out of a hole in the ground, pull two fighting dogs apart bearhanded, etc.etc.
