Food Waste (was Re: SC - Question on Butters)

[maddie teller-kook]

One thing we have done here in Bryn Gwlad with leftovers is save them for
another event. Usually, we have 'tiny tournies' or a revel. The food is frozen
and then we serve it up then. One example, we had an event in October, had
plenty of left over stew so, it will be served up at Yule! Freezers are a
wonderful invention!
