T-Bird Anni Rides Again

Guess who has a "new" frige?  Yup, that would me ME!     Not only that, it’s bigger than teh old one (which was always a fraction too small so stuff got stuffed in rather precariously at times) and it only has a small freezer bit which gives me the perfect excuse to get an under the work surface type freezer adn have seperate units rather than a combined one where you are stuck with our current quandry of a working freezer with an insulated cupboard on top of it.  Hopefully this one will last a few years thus spreading the cost of replacements better than needing to buy a combined unit every time one half of it breaks.

Other than that today I made a few more ADC chicks for the Easter baskets the craft ladies are making (getting this toa fine art now!) whilst Aprilia played with probably the brightest red play dough I’vev ever made - it was fabulously red!

Aprilia has decided that she is going to give up suckign ehr thumb for Lent (after me deciding I was going to leave her to it!!!)  and insisted on us getting some Stop’n'grow from the chemist to help her.  She has made a distressing discovery about that stuff - the taste doesn’t stay on the nails…. if you put them in your mouth, the taste gets on your tougue and stays tehre for an hour or so afterwards (where’s taht barfing smilie when you want him??) 

Our fridge has died.  The freezer is still chugging away but the fridge bit on top of it is now nought more than an insulated cupboard.  I’ve thrown away just about everything in it (because it’s now been dead for a full 24 hours and I’m not taking any chances on things like meat!) and I’m using the camp fridge for the milk (thank goodness for being totally camp gadget mad!!)

So, cosmic supply company, I need a fridge, preferably cheap and not too big as it will need to slip into a small kitchen.  Not getting combined again as this is the second time now that the freezer has still been going great guns and the fridge dead (although to be fair, this one is over 10 years old so I suspect I have had my moeny’s worth from it!)  No doubt I’ll be in teh market ofr a replacement freezer afore long but I’m putting that off for as long as I can (because I would like a big one so I can batch cook a bit more!)
