    Thanks! When asked what my current food preservation experience was, I had to answer, "Freezing left overs." My cup is really, really empty.

    Love your "freezing left overs" answer...very funny! And don't worry about your cup being really, really empty because it'll get really, really full with all you learn here as a member of the FV community!
