Joys of home ownership

The freezer is fixed. At least it was cheaper than a new fridge, that would have sucked considering this one can't be more than 5 years old. The defrost heater went out and I asked the repair person why that would happen. His response - Age. The newer models just don't last as long. Energy efficient, but don't last as long. However, it's fixed and that is what I care about right now.

But considering all that and having lot of stuff defrosted to the point it was cook or toss, I cooked a bunch of stuff yesterday. Which reminds me I have cranberry sauce that needs to be covered and put in the fridge.

I'm also going through some old cooking magazines and was inspired last night to try out one in Everyday Food for crepes with sauteed bananas and chocolate. It was delicious and fantastic tasting. I also didn't realize how easy crepes are to make. Now I have extra I can freeze for future use.
