Meghan and I have been dealing with an ailing freezer in recent weeks. First there was the great defrost where puddles of water leaked from the freezer into the fridge. This happened a few times. Then there was the general lack of freezing of our meats and other frozen entrees. And then, late last week, the complete death of the freezer when it became unable to freeze one single ice cube. Yep, our freezer became just another extension of our fridge. So sad and annoying to those of us who don’t like to drink room temperature beverages (me).
But, never fear! Fridge redemption is here! Don’t be fooled by the picture. Meghan and I will not miss the old fridge. It did not rock our worlds. I even think there’s a good chance that the fridge was older than both of us. That’s what renting in NYC will get you. But our new fridge is just a little tiny baby. And he’s lovely. He’s shiny and new and froze ice on his very first try! 
The not so fun part of the upgrade was having to take everything out of the old and scatter it all over the counter tops in preparation for the new. It was like a graveyard of crap in our kitchen. Because not only did we have food to move, but he microwave lives on top of the fridge and then the liquor and snacks live on top of that. It was a lot of stuff. Please enjoy the photos of all of our crap!
The very best thing about the new guy is that he’s bigger. Because he’s from this century all the space on the inside is for food storage, not space for the 1980’s archaic cooling equipment. When we put all the food back in, it only filled 1/2 of the space. And the freezer is so big I think a tiny person could fit in it. You know, children that need a place to hide or midgets that need to cool off. All we need now is for the stove with its three working burners to give up the ghost and we can get a new one and then be good to go. Welcome new appliance, we love you so.
