Do you just add the embed html or the link to the YouTube page? Thanks.

Should be the "embed" link that looks like <object width=xxx> tag.  However, I'll need to do a little work to make that function for you.  It works today for administrators, but it's somewhat buggy and clunky.

I did add the tags <object> and <embed> to the list of allowed html, so give it try and we'll see if it works okay.  I may end up having to remove them if it doesn't work well, or if it brings on spammers posting stuff we don't want to see.

That freezer soup is a great idea. I'm always getting left with a few tablespoons of veg after meals still in the pot. No one wants too much on their plate but I wish they would go finish them up! I bet I could fill that fast.
