title: Perl serializing and Deserializing hash of hashes
body: <p>I am trying to serialize a hash of hashes and then deserializing it to get back the original hash of hashes ..the issue is whenever i deserialize it ..it appends an autogenerated $var1 eg.</p>
  
  <p>original hash</p>
  
  <pre><code>%hash=(flintstones =&gt; {
      husband   =&gt; "fred",
      pal       =&gt; "barney",
  },
  jetsons =&gt; {
      husband   =&gt; "george",
      wife      =&gt; "jane",
      "his boy" =&gt; "elroy",  
  },
  );
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>comes out as
       $VAR1 = {
            'simpsons' => {
                            'kid' => 'bart',
                            'wife' => 'marge',
                            'husband' => 'homer'
                          },
            'flintstones' => {
                               'husband' => 'fred',
                               'pal' => 'barney'
                             },
  };</p>
  
  <p>is there any way i can get the original hash of hashes without the $var1..??</p>
