Freezer

When we moved to Bonaire, a small freezer came with the house.  It was big enough for a bag of ice (we don't have an ice maker), some frozen veggies and meat. One day we were walking through a department /grocery store and saw an upright freezer with a good price.  We were preparing to leave for our two month trip to Europe so we told ourselves we would get it when we returned. We should have known better. When you see something on the island you need to buy it because there is no guarantee it will be there tomorrow.



We went back to get the freezer and it wasn't on display and there was no hope for a new supply.  We looked at freezers that were bigger and more expensive, of course.  We found one that was a scratch and dent.  The store was nice enough to give us a 10 percent discount because of the minor damage and they delivered it for free.  

We went home and cleared a spot in our storage room.  Moved all the frozen items to the apartment freezer. We were all ready for the delivery.

 

Two nice guys delivered the freezer and set it into place. Nothing is very easy or perfect on the island.  The freezer had a minor problem with the roller on the bottom...not part of the scratch and dent on the door. Rick, my talented handyman, repaired it with a screw and a bolt. Perfection.  We now have double the freezer space. Rick always says, " Bigger is Better".





While we were on a buying spree, I also purchased an air fryer.  I have heard so much about them and wanted to give it a try.  It's easier than using our oven, I think....I will let you know.

  1. I'm anxious to hear what you think of the air fryer. That freezer will be really nice!
