Gratitude: Refrigerators

This post is part of our Gratitude series, which reminds us to celebrate the ordinary things as we navigate life at home.

Today we’re grateful for… the fridges that house our food.

Pause for a moment. Consider what your life would look like without a chilly place to store your milk, cheese, meat… perishables galore. Especially in the summer heat, those ingredients stand little chance of survival without a fridge to call home. Any extended time without that extra chill would render them questionable for consumption.

But how many times do we actually even notice the substantial impact our fridges have on our lives? In our own experience, at least — pretty much never. Their big time role is largely overlooked (that is, until they fall down on the job).

So today, we want to give a hat tip to the fridges in our lives. We’re taking a moment to say — thanks fridge for the way you keep on keepin’ on, ensuring that our food lasts, providing nourishment and fuel for our lives!
