Yes, that was sweet of you to buy the fridge . My mum had the choice of a fridge or
television, you can guess what we kids voted for. Of course, she had the most votes.
It does seem kind of bizarre now, but she had known hunger.

Very interesting. Now that I usually eat alone I eat very simply.....as long as I have good coffee with it I'm not particular.

In just one century, so much has speeded up our lives! I feel sometimes like the old fogie hobbling along in a revolving door, the people behind me push it faster--some even thinking they are helping me!
Happy Valentine's Day!

Good Morning
Pat, I'm very thankful for all of our appliances. Now that we have them I think it would be hard to live without them. When you mentioned the crockpot I thought of my oldest son. He does almost all the cooking in the house and he has a large family. I'm not sure what he would do without a crockpot. He puts a meal in the crockpot to cook early in the morning before work and cooks it all day and by dinner, they have a nice meal. As long as he has his crockpot plugged in he's happy. It takes so much stress off of him. I love the microwave for heating leftovers up and I'm not sure what I would do without my coffee maker. I wash clothes every day so the washer is very important to me. I have a big family and I wash a lot of clothes in a week. The dryer is important for that reason too! Happy Valentine's Day! I hope you have a wonderful day!

Good morning
That was incredibly kind of you to buy your mother a refrigerator. It shows your true character that we have all come to know and love. As for those amazing appliances, I have really come to love my mixer, microwave, and blender. Those days of ice blocks to keep food cold had to have been a real ordeal in keeping food fresh. Our lives have truly been impacted by modern implements. This is the technology that I love.
