Frozen calamity.
Do you remember in the Sopranos when Bobby “Bacala” Baccalieri’s wife died suddenly and he couldn’t bring himself to eat her baked ziti from the freezer for months and months? It was all he had left of her – something that had been made by her hands. Tony’s sister, Janice, was tying to move in on Bobby and she forced him to eat the baked ziti – defrosting and deshrining Bobby’s dead wife in one fell swoop. Over the past several weeks I’ve been doing quite a bit of cooking and freezing so we have real food to eat when I’m on crutches. Don’t think I’m not thinking about this scene every time I slap a label on a piece of tupperware.
