So I started keeping an emergency
bag of persimmon puree in my freezer at all times. I don’t know why, because
I haven’t had a persimmon emergency since them (but heck, ya never know!) But

mélange of plastic bags whose labels had fallen off, ice cubes that had
landed in the back of the shelves (with some misc. crumbs) – and – of course
– just out of arms reach, scraps of things like tomato paste and bacon cubes,
bits and pieces of cakes (I think) and pâté
