I am freezing everything I can , but we are quickly running out of freezer space, I have not yet received the freezer I was promised, and OH! I forgot to mention half of our freezer is full of hops! Adam brews his own beer and fresh hops seem to keep appearing and of course it is preferrable that they be frozen. On the plus side, I should have some good beer related postings in the near future....
I just found your "other" blog - what fun! Keith and Kenny are out, so I'm wasting my precious "me" time surfing the web, but am enjoying your postings. I've had similar freak outs with our produce before - little pearls of wisdom I've found: most herbs make excellent pesto (pea shoots, cilantro, etc) that can be frozen, you can shred and freeze potatoes for hashbrowns or soups later in the year, and if you change up the proteins and dressings enough, boys will eat salad for dinner for a week straight ;) Hope that helps!
