My New Freezer
May 21st, 2011 | 
Author: I feel silly.
I’m hugging the thing like I’ve never seen an electric appliance before.
I just bought a chest freezer.
It’s about time.
I’ve been asking for one for many years.
I guess maybe it was because I requested it as a birthday present.
My husband never thought I was serious.
My mom never thought I was serious.
My sister just laughed.
Other family members gave me blank looks.
Friends sympathized said they would drop hints.
Finally I told my husband I would buy the freezer from my very small biz earnings.
He saw I was serious.
He talked me into a bigger freezer saying the family (that’s what we call his earnings) would chip in.
We talked about ordering half a cow. We settled on helping out an elderly family member by preparing many meals we could deliver.
He picked my babyup today (we saved on delivery. Gotta love Sears)
I’m hugging it.
This is how I used to get by.
Here's a breakdown of what's in my freezer. Click image to make it larger.
