So our refrigerator started dying last week...the first clue was the pesto seeping out of a bag on the door...lovely. I am one of those people who LOVE to put crap all over the refrigerator...pictures, magnets, cartoons...it's my canvas. Kids who walk into the house love to look at the pictures, because many of them find themselves right there on the fridge.
So we bought a new refrigerator over the weekend. We've been going back and forth on how long we've had it. I finally got around to taking the pictures and magnets and junk off it...and I got my answer. We had magnets with football schedules from our alma mater from 1995 on there.
Yes, I threw them out.
Now I'm looking for some kind of Lucite or something frame to put pictures in so I can have one big refrigerator picture. Anybody know of something like that?

Message: Im very funny about my refrigerator. I like absolutely nothing hanging on it. I like a clean front. I put up with the refrigerator art for yrs, now that my kids are older I want it clean! (although I love their art). Hubby still hangs coupons and junk on it. Its big arguement in our house. I have the school schedule of events and thats it.
Mission Accomplished? You mean the war is over??? Ha ha. Kidding. : )
We have those old college football and MLB schedule magnets on our fridge because we don't seem to buy any actual magnets. LOL!
My parents still have (and use) the very fridge they got when they moved into the house in 1966. Seriously. Mom saves everything and she still has the manual that pictured the number of ways you could arrange the shelves and drawers. It was AMAZING what was pictured in the model's fridge. A giant ham, prepared pudding deserts in cups, some sort of jello mold salad.... Needless to say, I've never owned a fridge that looked like that.

Message: LOL! Me too! My fridge is covered in pictures, kids drawings & report cards. I should get some of those frames too. Would make it look much neater. I always say I am going to take that stuff off. Jacob loves to hang his work on it. Someday it will be Drewski.
