reeping the reward

so like i said the spinach is out of control. i picked, cooked and froze (what we didn't use for dinner that night) a bunch of spinach. i think i might have done it wrong though... i didn't pick it at the root, i picked it at the top near the leaf. i wonder if that will stimulate more growth or should i go back and pick those stems?! i also couldn't figure out if it's easier to chop the spinach before or after cooking. i chose after and actually just ended up pureing it this time. i could not believe how much better fresh, organic home grown spinach looks (super bright green) and tastes oposed to the frozen stuff we usualy buy at the store.
