New Energy Efficient Appliances

A couple of years ago Church Council decided to upgrade all of the appliances in the parsonage - before they break...

First we got a new washing machine (the old one actually broke first) ...

Then last year they upgraded the range and the hood...

And this year they had approved the purchase of a new Refrigerator - notice the old green paint above the 'fridge - we had to remove a cabinet 'cause apparently the new 'fridge is taller than the old one - don't worry one of the parishoners has a wood shop and he's going to trim it up and put it back for us...

...and dishwasher...


...they're both Kenmore (remember we still have a Sears Appliance store here - so it's nice that they buy local and support them) and white - I like white appliances...

So far we like them both a lot - the 'fridge has it's freezer at the bottom which is taking some getting used to - but it certainly seems to hold more stuff than the old side-by-side - and the biggest bonus of all - you can actually carry on a conversation in the kitchen with the dishwasher running - without shouting - haha...

  1. you're so lucky!! yes, my favorite appliance was my kenmore dishwasher that i had at NEW HILL - i miss it....it washed everything clean, no matter how much grimy stuff i "stuffed" into it. i now have a kitchenaid that is 14 yrs old (hey, i shouldn't complain, i picked it out new, so it's my fault)...hate it - noisy, doesn't wash well....i'll replace it someday....

    love,k

  2. Boy, you can really enjoy doing all that kitchen stuff now, as if you didn't before. But they are nice. E

  3. Congratulations! I like all white too. It looks clean, the rare moments my kitchen is actually clean!

    Best, Lori

  4. Oh yes, when I was living with my parents in the parsonage I remember how very happy I was when they installed new carpet and a dishwasher in the same year. Congrats!
