I'll run down to Lowe's and get a freezer thermometer so I can adjust my temperature. I already picked up freezer zip locks in quart and gallon sizes.
My mother will be visiting me in two weeks, she's had a freezer for ages, and I know she'll have lots of tips for me. That woman is an ultimate homemaker (I must've taken after my father)...now, if I could only get her to try the Magic eraser!
