Davit,
I didn't know that about onions. I'll buy some and freeze them. I'm not sure this old freezer should be used, since it's so old, and is probably using a lot more than a better replacement. I also feel unsure if I should be planning so far ahead. I don't feel I can have "vision", with mom's death. I feel this numbness won't go away, but I am functioning. eg. I can cook, wash dishes, do laundry, and am physically fitter than I have been most of my adult life...but this shock/numbness/sadness...
