One of man's greatest creations is definitely the
refrigerator. When we have some generator electricity,
we keep the refrigerator working. I’ve made
it a habit to rush into the kitchen every time anyone
shows any inclination for a cool beverage. It gives
me a great excuse to stand in front of the refrigerator
for a couple of moments and let the cool- albeit
slightly odorous- refrigerated air surround me.
At night, the refrigerator not only provides chilled
air, and cold water, but it also offers that pale
yellow light which falls like a beacon of hope across
the darkened kitchen… |
