I remember going into my grandfather’s house as a little girl and trying to open door on his big, honkin’ refrigerator. It was so heavy! It was a 1950′s fridge. Big, beefy and smoky, cold vapor always poured out of it when it was opened. It didn’t have a lot of bells & whistles.

Our kitchen looks so small with the big, boxy fridge in it. Last fall, we found a great monitor top fridge for a greater price. It’s been sitting in the barn since then, keeping stuff cold and humming along. It really is so quiet, you wonder if it’s working.

When we moved in, one of the things left by the previous owners was a 1950-ish Tappan gas oven that was left to them by the previous owners. It’s in fine shape and we’ve used in on several occassions. It cooks slower than I’m used to and you won’t get turkey, dressing, yams and rolls in at the same time, but we think it has much more character than the circa 2000 oven we have now.
