Oh, sure, but we just call it "leftovers night". It doesn't happen all
that often here, to be honest. James has been a good influence on me
over the years, and most times, I make just enough food for dinner, so
we rarely have leftovers. I used to throw out a lot of food; now I
barely throw away anything, and I attribute that to learning how to cook
smaller quantities. My mother's half Jewish and half Italian, so I grew
up learning to cook for an army. My mom still does, and when I was there
visiting last week, her fridge was a fright -- some stuff in there, even
she couldn't identify, and she'd presumably cooked it at some point.
