** There is also Gloria and Tony's argument when Tony has to leave to bail Paulie and Chris out of their predicament. Gloria throws a hissy fit at Tony and ends up throwing the meal that she made for him, a large steak, at his head. Tony looks around, initially pissed off but then he suppresses a smile, almost laughing at the absurdity of the situation.
** When Bobby arrives in his hunting gear, Tony just busts out laughing.

* The Sopranos Family Cookbook: As Compiled by Artie Bucco is an InUniverse cookbook. Apparently, Artie decided to write a cookbook (and Tony graciously slapped his name on the cover), and he decided to interview every mobster he knew about food. Highlights include:
** Janice's chapter basically ripping off Livia's recipes and passing them as her own.
** When Artie gets to Adrianna's chapter and none too subtly gushes over her beauty.
** Christopher ranking food scenes in movies and putting his own unreleased screenplay on the top 10.
** Bobby Bacala giving tips for "heavy eaters".
** Artie, by divine coincidence, stumbles on a paper Melfi and Richard La Penna wrote on Italian food. It says: "Of all the subjects, 98% strongly agreed with the statement: 'I like food.'"
** Artie mentions the dangers of eating too much red meat, and shares Junior's tips to living long. Unfortunately, he chose to interpret the question wrong and shared tips like "kick the shit out of the other guy before he kicks you".
