Heidi ordered a new fridge for us. (Warning: sunglasses may be needed.)

[Call Me Wesley]

The color is "Juicy Orange." :eyes:

[Tobin S.]

1. That's an artist for you

I can see it now. You will need other orange appliances to go with the fridge. Then you will need orange and white ceramic tile on the floor and on the walls over the counters. Light orange counters. Orange and white curtains. And chairs painted orange along with a table shaped and painted like an orange.

[Call Me Wesley]

2. Don't give her any ideas!

And we already have red dining chairs and a red leather chair here, so the orange will be a nice addition. ;)

Oh, there's an orange curtain on the patio, too!

[Heidi]

6. No, no, no! BLACK and WHITE checkerboard tiles on the floor!

I would LOVE it, but I'm afraid CMW is quite happy with our terra cotta tile floors. :(

Imagine, though, these tiles with that "juicy orange" fridge! :7

[Tobin S.]

14. It would be a thing of beauty

:thumbsup:

[Heidi]

15. I totally love

truck stop and soda fountain style. :D

[auntAgonist]

22. oooh just like the Nighthawks cafe!

:hug: hiya Heidi.

You have good taste.

:loveya:

aA
kesha

[Heidi]

24. Kesha!!!!

Hi, hon! :hug: :loveya:

:smooch:

[Maine-ah]

3. I love it!!

[Heidi]

7. These were my first choices:

Custom painted by American Warehouse in Germany:



And I loved this one, but I don't want my fridge to say "SMEG" on the front. :rofl:

[jobycom]

47. I'd have gone with SMEG and etched in ALE.

SMEAGLE. But I'm a Tolkein nerd, so I'm weird like that.

I like the orange, don't let DCMW give you no grief by it. :rofl:

[BrklynLiberal]

4. That is fantastic.There is an amazing variety of this kind of appliance available now for those

with imagination...

scroll down. They have retro MICROWAVES!!!

[Call Me Wesley]

8. Cool site!

And free beer! :woohoo:

[Heidi]

11. Dear lord.

NO, my love. NO. :rofl:

[Heidi]

9. That orange stove!!!!!!!! *WISH*!!!!

Check out these sofas! Are they just too cool? :hi:

[BrklynLiberal]

12. LOL..before I even clicked on the second link., I said to myself, those couches look like

the inside of an old car...LOL

[Heidi]

13. When I'm very wealthy...

you know how that goes. :rofl:

[BrklynLiberal]

16. Did you check out the CLOCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

http://www.barsandbooths.com/bandbclocksradios.htm

[Heidi]

17. VERY cool clocks!

(Whispering) Just between you and me, since I cannot justify the expense of a "crazy couch" from American Warehouse in Germany, I think I've talked Call Me Wesley into going along with this. We have the _perfect_ place for it, and it would "really tie the room together"! :rofl:

[BrklynLiberal]

26. LOL

(Whispering too). Just let me know when you need any more decorating ideas...lolololol ;-)

[Heidi]

27. I believe our mutual tastes tread that very thin line between design genius

and tacky. :rofl:

[BrklynLiberal]

28. Isn't that what creativity is all about??????

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[Heidi]

29. Yes, indeed!

Let me show you our display of manual typewriters. CMW and I think the LED lighting inside the shelf adds that perfect bit of tacky. :D

[BrklynLiberal]

37. WOW! That should DEFINITELY be an installation in our Museum of Modern Art here in NYC!!!!!!!!!!!!!

http://www.moma.org/explore/exhibitions

[Heidi]

40. The Olivetti Valentine is already there!

And I'm very proud to tell you that I designed our typewriter display, and then got a local wood craftsman to build it for us. :D

[BrklynLiberal]

43. I AM impressed!!!!!

:applause: :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause:

checked out your other videos.

LOVE the koi pond!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The videos could be a meditation or relaxation videos

[BrklynLiberal]

48. I see...I think that your entire collection..and your display mode would be an asset to the

museum.

[demoleft]

5. it's just fantastic. great choice. give her my hello! n/t

[Heidi]

10. Hi, you!!!!

You just gave me your own hello! And right back atcha, friend! :hug:

[demoleft]

33. ciao you there!

congratulations for that great intense orange ;) no kidding, è fantastico.
perfect color for the coming summer season and all its colorful fruits.
no complaining in the house is allowed, as to that! eheh, ciao friend! :)

[LeftyFingerPop]

18. I love the color orange...

and that fridge is seriously cool looking.

[Heidi]

19. Orange is growing on me, especially in combination with red.

The centerpiece of our small collection of manual typewriters is a 1969 Olivetti Valentine. That's where I got "permission" to combine red barstools with an orange fridge. :rofl:

P.S. Mornin', QUEENS!!!! :hug:

[LeftyFingerPop]

20. Good morning! (or afternoon)...

:hug:

You know what would be really cool?

If it said "Smeg" on the fridge door.









































:hide:

[Heidi]

21. Oh, YOU!!!!

:rofl: :spray:

:spank:

[MiddleFingerMom]

23. Apparently, from the picture...

.
.
.
.
.
...you are only allowed to put orange foodstuffs in it.
.
.
.
.
.
Probably marketed by some big AgCorp conservative in Florida, eh?
.

[Heidi]

25. Har!

Actually, SIBIR is a Swiss brand and I believe all of its products are made in Switzerland. Not that I care. I just wanted an orange fridge. I'm shallow like that. :rofl:

Mornin', sunshine! :hug:

[La Lioness Priyanka]

30. Love it :)

[Heidi]

34. !

Love _you_! :hug:

[La Lioness Priyanka]

36. ..

:hug:

[tigereye]

31. woah! that ought to wake you guys up in the morning!

[Heidi]

35. No kidding!

And it'll probably keep us awake at night. :rofl:

:hi: tigereye! :hug:

[MilesColtrane]

32. You'll have to keep the freezer stocked with these at all times.

Strictly for color-coordination purposes, of course.

[BrklynLiberal]

39. Here is a visual shopping list.....

[Heidi]

41. I think those are lovely!

However, I can't eat them because I became violently ill from eating too many of them one summer when I was a kid (thanks to having a Granny who just wouldn't or couldn't say no to me. :rofl: )

[xchrom]

38. you must have this to go with that fabulous fridge

http://www.aga-ranges.com/_store/Scripts/prodview.asp?idproduct=79

[Heidi]

42. SO COOL!!!!

But we don't have natural gas in our area, the rat bastids. x(

P.S. :*

[xchrom]

44. i would KILL to have that fridge and an aga cooker.

:* back at ya!

[surrealAmerican]

45. The fridge my family had in the '70s ...

... was that same color! My father had painted it to match our "harvest gold", sage green, and orange wallpaper.

[Heidi]

46. When I was a kid in the 70s,

we had "avocado green" appliances. :shudder:

:rofl:

[NYC_SKP]

49. Try to find a nice efficient small fridge like that here in the states...

...and you'll pay out the kazoo.

Prices have come down on what are called "counter depth" units and I finally found one for around $800.

But typical American units are fucking huge, vulgar, things.

Not surprisingly.

That's a beaut!

:hi:

[Heidi]

54. To be honest,

This is the first brand-spankin' new fridge I've ever bought. All of the homes Yi've owned and places I've rented have had fridges at move in. But our current fridge has been on its last legs for ages, but the easily available fridges have beeb not energy efficient enough for us, too gargantuan for our needs, and/or way too "white goods" to go with the other stuff we have. Plus, I made a jillion phone calls this morning and got this model and color for CHF 700 lower than list price. Yes, I'm maddingly particular and neurotic. :D

[Flaxbee]

50. Really? I love it!

Though SMEG has one in a very nice pink that I have the hots for. Though I'm with Heidi, I don't want my fridge to say "SMEG" :D

Nice lookin' appliance, Heidi! :hi:

[Heidi]

55. Oh, boy. I had to explain SMEG to my 18-year-old goddaughter this morning.

She LOVES that light pink model and wanted to know why I didn't get the orange SMEG. she now has a new word in her English vocabulary. :yoiks:

[Solly Mack]

51. I like it!

[Heidi]

57. Hi,Solly Mack!

I like it, too, and hope I don't regret it. :rofl:

[Solly Mack]

62. I love old & old-looking stoves and fridges!

I'm hoping to get a Chambers or a Wedgewood. Probably have to get a Westinghouse for the fridge.....and I want them in fire engine red. :)

You won't regret it - it'll be the one thing you look at over the years and love all the more - besides CMW, that is. :)

[nolabear]

52. THAT, my friend, is a thing of beauty!

I'm very color sensitive, though, and an orange fridge would make me want to eat like mad.

[Heidi]

58. It kinda has the opposite effect on me.

It makes me wanna fill it up with iced tea and San Pellegrino. Summer stuff. (But come winter, it might just scream: CARROT CAKE. :rofl: )

[hippywife]

53. What fun!

I wish I lived next door to you two. :D

[Call Me Wesley]

56. Since I can't have this one,

it wouldn't really be fun. We could look at kitty pics on the iPad, though. ;)

[Heidi]

59. That's MY wish!!!!!

What a coinkeedink!!!

:smooch:

:loveya:

[Amerigo Vespucci]

60. Well, that'll wake you up EVERY morning.

The only thing that would make that fridge better would be for an umlaut to be somewhere in the brand name.

:rofl:

[Call Me Wesley]

61. LÖL!

Like: SÏBÏR?

[Skittles]

63. scheduling Heidi for ass kicking

I'll wear orange boots so she understands why

[applegrove]

64. There is actually something called the "color lobby" in the USA which

decides what the newest colors will be for kitchen appliances, cars and such. If they can get you to buy a 'way out' there color on your durable good they are guaranteed that you'll be back in a few years for a new item once that color is out of fashion and well before the item is past its prime.

[RFKHumphreyObama]

65. It looks somewhat post-modern

But it does have a certain charm and appeal to it
