Someone put the bright idea of a Trader Joe's "New York Style Cheesecake"
in my head. Yesterday I bought one. 3.5 lbs.!

That's a LOT of cheesecake!!! What WAS I thinking?!!!

Now that it's thawed in the fridge can I slice it and refreeze slices?

Yeah, but go overboard as far as sealing the frozen stuff, so it doesn't get
dehydrated. This probably means a plastic container, wax paper between
slices (so they're easy to separate), and then pop the entire container into
a really big NAME BRAND zip back intended for freezing. Some of the private
label stuff is [censored].

Sure, I do ... except I just freeze 1/4 or 1/2 cheesecake, not
slices. Take it out when I feel like it's going to be a cheesecake
kinda week.

Andy, there is no such thing as too much cheesecake. Wherever did you
get such an idea? :-)

Yes, you can refreeze it, but the texture may suffer slightly. It
should still be good. The other alternative, of course, is to send
all excess to me immediately, by courier.

I got dibs on at least 1/4 of the cheesecake.

Michael <- IS getting fat. Gained weight again this month

I started to. I had maybe a 1/2 pound slice for breakfast but then I
looked back in the box and realized I was in trouble! 🙁

If you're getting fat, you don't need it. I, OTOH, am already fat and
require cheesecake to maintain my weight. :-))

Perhaps Wayne and I could stop in this evening. We'll create some non-
existant crisis and try to find a solution to the crisis over cheesecake...
Good Gawd, we would be the Golden Girls all over again.

Dammit Nancy, you're ruining everything. If he finds out he can freeze it,
he won't share with the rest of us 😉

For the life of me, I don't know why I thought that New York cheesecake
was "light and fluffy."

There's NO air in NY cheesecake!

Keeps wanting to type cheesesteak

Then Andy has a "wealth of cheesecake". :-)

Or, in the case of 1 person sitting in front of a 3-1/2 cheesecake, an
"embarrassment of cheesecake"!

You betcha. NY cheesecake is made predominantly of cream cheese colored
lead. :-)

No way, really? New York cheesecake is creamy.
That was a joke because someone once asked for
a cheesecake that wasn't dry like New York
cheesecake.
