The Refrigerator


I have to mention our refrigerator. It was an old used Frigidaire and I will never ever forget it. The handle was broken so we had to use a Philips screwdriver to open the door. We would take the screwdriver and stick it in the hole while pulling on the handle. If you positioned the screwdriver just right you could push on the latch with the screwdriver and the door would come open. Mom and dad liked it because it was hard for us kids to open the door. One of my greatest accomplishments as a child was the day that I finally figured out how to open the refrigerator all by myself. Mom and Dad did not get it fixed partly because they could not afford to, but there was the added advantage that it kept us kids out of the fringe.
