freezersnowdrift
/ˈfriːzə ˈsnəʊdrɪft/nounVerified NewAlso in: Tiefkühltundra (Deutsch) · congelanieve (Español) · neigélateur (Français)
The permafrost of ancient peas and ice crystals accumulating inside the freezer.
The freezersnowdrift forms under the defrost schedule that never defrosts. Peas from a previous era are fused into the wall, and a bag of something herbal is buried at the summit. Excavation is attempted each spring, abandoned each spring, and the drift grows by stratification, patient and white.
Etym. — freezer + snowdrift — the glacier that forms behind a closed door.
