Considering 'perpetual soup'

susan8020Got a crock pot and a place to put it where it can simmer perpetually. Never used one before.
Saw something about 'perpetual soup' where you keep something simmering constantly and add whatever you have from one day to the next. Add scraps, dip out soup. Or maybe it's dip out tonight's bowl of soup, then add some scraps. Whatever stays in the pot too long, dissolves into stock.
Or maybe sometimes, when you come home with a fresh fish fillet, heat the pot a little hotter(?) then drop the fillet in just long enough to cook it, then pull the fillet out to eat. So it's a flavored fillet in sauce, and no fish bowl to clean; the fish juice has gone into the soup?
Has anyone tried this? Any cautions?
