Ah, the Wonderful World of Kitchen Appliances

[BakerAunt]

I couldn't help but notice that in the last few months, several of us got new kitchen appliances. Joan got an air fryer, I got a Green Pan rice cooker, and Len got a countertop oven. So, when I saw this comic, I had to post the link:

We bought a little countertop icemaker because our big icemaker isn't working again. It might be fixable or it might be time to think about a new one, but the little one will get us through the next few weeks.

We also had our two-year defrost timer failure on our SubZero freezer. :sigh: They're seeing if a different maker's plug-compatible defrost timer might be more reliable, should be installed on Monday.

We have been looking for a small upright freezer that we could fit into the garage. However, I want it to be frost free, and small ones generally are not. The garage also has space issues. I've looked online at Lowe's and at Best Buy. In the meantime, after cramming seventeen four-cup bags of blueberries into the Annex freezer section, with the frozen applesauce and frozen pumpkin, and all of the other stuff in there, and looking at the packed freezer section in the house refrigerator, I think that I may need to start canning applesauce rather than freezing so much of it.

Be sure you get one that is garage-ready, sometimes if it is too cool in the winter they don't regulate their temperature well.
