My new/old toy...

My freezer! Yes, it's finally back in action.

I bought this freezer used from an older lady a few years back. When I was living in my studio. That may sound weird to you, but in my studio I had a rather nice large kitchen and it added some nice counter space. Plus my old kitchen had a 1940's refrigerator that literally has a tiny tin box in it. Yeah that wasn't going to work for me since I often get meat and corn from my parents, so I was on a mission to buy a freezer. Except, Did you all know that freezers are really expensive? Yeah little microwave sized counter top freezers are over a hundred dollars most of the time. Yikes! Anyhow I scored this one for $50 or $75 and it's a decent size. It was more than big enough when it was just me and now that there's two of us it's just perfect. I wanted to put it in our kitchen when we first moved in, but Jesse thought it took up to much space. It's been living in our storage space in the basement ever since. Last night I finally got him to help me move it back upstairs and into our spare room (which I rearranged to make sure there was enough room).

We cleaned it out last night, because after setting in the basement unused for almost 2yrs we figured it could use a good rub down. Plugged it in and let it get nice and cold last night. I don't know the exact cubic feet, but I believe it's somewhere between 10-12 which like I said is perfect for just the 2 of us.

Starting to stock up. I went grocery shopping today to stock up the freezer. Corn beef was more than half off. I'm so excited! It really is funny the things that excite us as we grow up. I'm definitely not a kid anymore, because having a deep freezer excites me. Should I be happy or sad about that?

P.S. I have no idea why this picture turned out crooked, because it looks normal on the computer.
