A few months ago, I baked organic sweet potatoes, mashed them, then froze them, bagged them separately, and then put those bags into one large bag.
I know it's only been four months, but I dug someone for dinner the other night to test them for the first time. Even though they were bagged twice, I still had some ice on them.
They were delicious, and tasted as if they were baked. They were thick and tasty. It was like eating a baked sweet potato without the skins.

Wear it out,
Make it do,
Or go without."

Update on the Cowls
In early November I crocheted myself two cowls - one short and one long. The long was almost immediately given to my 19 year-old daughter.
It was always in my way - housework, outdoor work, putting wood in the stove, baking and cooking etc. It was not conducive to my lifestyle. Daughter uses it to keep warm on her long drive back and forth to college, and for driving anywhere really.
