The new fridge......

Be sure to read what is at the very end of this post as I will be linking you to a Thanksgiving post from yesterday that I found to be exceptionally nice. So...here we go.....inquiring minds have asked to see photos of my new kitchen fridge (and the small one in the family room), so......here they are. The kitchen fridge is 26 cubic feet....old one was just under 22 cubic feet, so this gives us a lot more room. (If a larger one would have fit, I'd have gone larger, but this is as big as we can get here.) First photo shows the fridge with the doors closed. We didn't go with the fridge that has the water and ice dispenser in the door as I like to have as much shelf space as possible on the doors inside the fridge...so we just got the icemaker in the freezer compartment.Now we see the top half (the fridge part) with the doors open. How much easier Thanksgiving dinner preparations were with a large fridge like this! See the wide drawer under the two veggie crispers? That is as deep as the fridge and has a separate temp control and is great for deli items, cheeses, etc. They call it a pantry drawer and I am already loving that feature!
And here is the compact fridge/freezer that is in our family room. It is good for holding cans of soda and extra food and desserts on special occasions and for parties. It's tucked away in a corner next to my computer armoire....the most out-of-the-way corner in that room, actually. (Gotta get hubby to neaten up that nest of wires and that surge protector!!!)
Now...as I mentioned, I read a post on a blog yesterday that was very nice.....took a LONG time with all the photos she put there......but I found it very touching. Her hubby had some serious heart issues over the summer and I know she is very thankful for his recovery, but she really let us share in her happiness about her whole family...complete with photos.
