New Year-New Fridge

We are kicking off 2020 with a NEW refrigerator for the farmhouse! Yahoo! I am so excited!

I know you’re thinking…Really?…What’s so exciting about a new fridge? Well, let me tell you that this fridge is really just a symbol of how much we’re enjoying farm life (surprisingly) and the things to come!

When we first bought the property there was this green camper trailer next to the house. It had a kitchenette with this little 9.5 cu ft fridge inside. We took the fridge out of the trailer and put it in the farmhouse and then sold off the trailer. We weren’t really sure if we were going to enjoy being at the farm or if the nostalgia of farm life was going to wear off after a few months. So, we decided to get by with the smaller fridge until we were a little more committed to farm living.

Well,we’ve been using the little fridge for a year now and it’s been just fine. BUT it barely holds any food and the freezer needs de-icing on a regular basis….and let’s be honest…no one wants to make de-icing a habit.

Fortunately, Home Depot was having a fantastic sale on appliances and we were able to get a new 18 cu ft refrigerator for a bargain price. It’s not a jumbo size fridge and it doesn’t have any special features, but for just the two of us it should work out nicely.

So we officially up-sized our farm fridge from a 9.5 cu ft Kenmore to an 18 cu ft Frigidaire. Yep, it’s just a weee bit bigger.

For the color, I was torn between white or stainless steel, but I really think the white will match the farmhouse decor so much better. So, white it is.

(And yes, in case you noticed…the kitchen cabinets are pink. Yep, PINK! One of the other farmhouse projects is to upgrade the outdated Eisenhower pink cabinets. Lol)

That’s the FIRST task checked off on the 2020 Project ListUpgrade fridge! Sweeeetness.

So, the bigger fridge means we’re all in on our Crazy Farm Living adventure and that we’ll be doing more and more to turn this place in to a sustainable small farm and farm business. 

For now, I look forward to putting the new fridge to good use during holidays and visits with family and friends this year. Stay with us as we keep upgrading the farmhouse @crazyfarmliving.
