When people come to our house for the first time, they often don't notice the fact that there are two refrigerator-shaped items in the kitchen-- it's only when they go to put their beer in the freezer that they realize that there is, in fact, a full-size standup freezer where there used to be a closet. It's not a very big kitchen, at all, so I attribute this to people's preexisting expectations for kitchen appliances.

And boy, do we love our freezer. Not only does it allow us to easily preserve much of our annual CSA bounty (aside from the stuff Otis cans), but we also have a ton of leftovers preserved for emergencies of laziness. (Or just to use when appropriate. This Thanksgiving I made a pumpkin pie with pie filling I had made from our CSA pumpkin and frozen two years before. It was delicious.)

Right now, this is what's in our freezer:

baked rigatoni
puerto rican pork and rice
pureed tomatoes
shucked oysters
chicken tikka
beef stew
beef stock
bbq sauce (otis's secret recipe)
more pumpkin pie filling
pureed squash
pesto

plus an assortment of purchased items:
whole grain english muffins
pitas
frozen chicken and vegetable dumplings
whole wheat tortillas
a frozen spinach pizza
fake breakfast sausage
linguica
chicken sausage
chicken thighs
bags of innards from chickens (for making stock)
handle of vodka
ice

and probably more stuff... I didn't want to keep the door open too long. I'd say we're fairly prepared. For lazy Sundays, at least.
