The new stove

The new frig

The kitchen has gotten a new frig and a new stove this year. The old frig would take it`s spells in freezing in the frig department, not the freezer part. I really don`t like frozen milk, or eggs, or jello.

The old stove was from the 1950`s , I think and the oven didn`t work and it was soo small. The stove had a compartment on the side to store your pots and pans. the new stove is 30-inchs , the standard size, so their is a gap on both sides of the stove., But I soo love having a oven again and having a frig that doesn`t freeze.
