I like putting things in the freezer.
Even things that don't belong in there.
Like Reese's and Gatorade.
It makes them more appealing.
Or maybe that's just me.

You see the freezer can do some exquisite things.
Things we take for granted.
It stops the growth and multiplication of bacteria in its tracks
by throwing it into an environment at which it cannot flourish.  
So, instead of your chicken rotting six days after you buy it,
it can wait to rot until you take it back out of the beloved freezer.
How handy is that?

But the freezer doesn't just work on chicken and ice-cream.
It works on much more.
You can use it for memories, feelings, pain, fear.
Whatever you want, really.
You can place those nasty things in the freezer, and they cannot multiply.
They can't grow, they can't mold.
Well, not until you take them out at least.

I like putting things in the freezer.
But my freezer is running out of room.
