My daughter has written an excellent blog post. Except I can't wrap my mind around she and her hubby being on the "doorstep of middle age"...
I’ve basically given up on ever “getting it all together.”

Brenda, she's so like you. However, my jaw is on the floor with all that information and the possibilities. Hmmmm...think that I'll be in the market for a new phone not to mention preparing food for the freezer in entirely different ways.

I want to do some micro cooking, too...I only cook for one, it's true, most of the time, but I like to cook good sized amounts and stock up. Stephanie has a lot of excellent ideas and is practical and realistic.
