I’m not sure who is happier that I’m home from my recent trip to Whitehorse, Yukon Territory – me or John. Sometimes I’m just too far away…
And it isn’t easy getting to or from the Yukon Territory. Adding to that, my flight from Vancouver to Dallas/Ft Worth was diverted to Denver to so they could remove an unruly passenger in handcuffs. So that was different…
But now that I’m home, it’s time to get focused on the ranch again and today I ordered all of our appliances. All of them.
It’s an exciting and slightly frightening experience to spend that much money at one time. And I double and triple checked the order again and again before finalizing everything. Wondering what’s coming?
Although I went back and forth on a separate cooktop and wall ovens, when I saw the ilve (pronounced ill-vay) range, I was sold. We will be receiving a 48” Italian ilve dual fuel range with double ovens and a full warming drawer. As you can see in the YouTube video above, it has lots of bells and whistles, plus we are getting the midnight blue range with brass accents. Gorgeous!!
And we are getting an LG refrigerator that makes craft ice (as shown in the video above). I wondered about the door in a door feature, but our friends Miste and Dennis say they really enjoy and use that feature in their refrigerator. And did I mention that it makes craft ice?
Other appliances include two panel-ready Bosch dishwashers (one for the kitchen and one for the bar), an ice maker for the bar, a small deep freezer for the pantry, and under counter refrigerators for the bar, butler’s pantry, and outdoor kitchen.
Tomorrow we will meet our site supervisor at the house to discuss the next phases of construction. But in the meantime, thanks for stopping by!
Hugs, Libby
How about electricity? I think your neighbor, Hank, is ready.
Where did u buy appliances? If not local, good luck getting them serviced. You do realize we are on a different planet!
