I have now filled my new refrigerator's freezer over the past several weeks and even told DH that we need a small 5' chest freezer that has gotten pretty full now. This was after reading about everyone's freezers...

I managed to find ribeyes, strip steaks and t-bones in the $5 per lb. range at a couple of different stores on alternate weeks and froze them two to a pkg, getting it all well organized and marked with dates. I added a few pkgs of ground beef, lamb and chicken.

I froze a few cooked dishes after eating the other half and saving/freezing the rest for another day.

The herbs I have growing right now are bay leaves, Italian oregano, parsley and chives. I do have three flowering citrus trees right now and the air is heavy with perfume. Everything is blooming and the trees have put on new leaves, there is yellow pollen everywhere!
