Fridge Before & After with Frigidaire Gallery Custom-Flex

We had a pretty basic fridge when we moved into our town house 6 years ago. Some shelves, 2 crisper drawers, and basic shelves on the door. One open freezer at the top (no shelves except for the ones on the door). Our new Frigidaire Gallery® Custom-Flex™ Refrigerator has several different features that we are really excited about and I wanted to share those with you today!

The first thing is the Smudge-Proof™ Stainless Steel.  Ken and I have talked before about how we want to have stainless steel appliances someday when we graduate from renting, to a home where we'll have to provide our own appliances.  So we were excited about this fridge being the first in our collection (unless you count my mixer).  I hear, however, that regular stainless steel is not fun in the fingerprint department and we certainly have potential for a lot of those!  Lucky for us, this fridge has a special protective coating that resists fingerprints and smudges so that it’s easy to clean- that's my kind of fridge!  So, we've gone from regular white to stainless steel, and the bonus with this smudge-proof stainless steel is that it's still magnetic, so I can still use my calendar ;)

Next up is the Store-More™ Drawer.  I love this drawer for storing cheese (because we like to stock up on it when it's on sale) and sandwich meats. It's a very wide drawer and perfect for those low-profile items that you need to store but would prefer not to put on your shelves with more height available!

Taking Time to Reflect

In the midst of this busy life, with so much to do: fun things, boring things, needful things, exciting things, and more... it is good to take a moment and reflect on what is most important to us and on what we believe.

As for me, I believe in God and I believe in Christ. This weekend is one for reflection.

Whatever you believe and whatever you're doing this weekend, I hope you all have a lovely long weekend with friends and family!

If you're interested, this is a lovely short video about Easter, and what it means to us.



Easter weekend also happens to be General Conference weekend for our church. A conference is held twice a year where we listen to the Prophet, Apostles, and other church leaders. I love conference time. I love the time together as a family, I love having two days to focus in so much on what is important. Especially, I love to listen to the inspiring messages that are shared. Whether you're a member of my church or not, if you're interested, you are welcome to watch or listen to General Conference. You can do so online here. (There's a little countdown on that page, that lets you know when the next session will be).

Spring Weather, Vitamins, & a Giveaway

It has been a long Winter here and even though the calendar tells us it's Spring now, the weather seems to be putting up a fight!  We've had snow this week but we hold on to the hope of warmer days whenever the sun comes out.  We are very ready for those days!

Whenever we do have a sunny day, the girls start asking if they can pull out their bikes or their scooters and I haven't let them yet- there are still piles of snow everywhere we look!  (They are disappearing though, and I am looking forward to the opportunities to get outside with them and enjoy this beautiful world).

Last April, on a Spring walk... maybe that weather will be here in a few weeks again!

A Horse Drawn Maple Sugar Bush Tour

During our kids' Spring Break from school, we went to St. Jacobs Farmers Market in Ontario and took a Maple Sugar Bush Tour by St. Jacobs Horse Drawn Tours.  It was such a fun experience and I am so happy that we did it!  I took quite a few photos while we were there and thought it would be fun to share our experience with you.
