It sounds like you've been busy! :D Not to worry, its time for the seed catalogues now, then before long we'll all be preparing the ground and sowing and planting again. :)

I put two in good quality plastic freezer bags as as soon as possible after harvesting into the freezer. Pop them into unsalted boiling water for 6/7 minutes, smother in organic salted butter and enjoy! Easy peasy...
