A Tiny Freezer For A Tiny House

 

By now I’m sure you are all aware of how heartbroken I was to give up my long term food storage (LTFS) in order to make the move to my new house.  Well, I’m feeling a whole lot better about now because I got the cutest tiny little freezer and it fits perfectly in the dining nook along the wall next to the fridge as if that spot was custom made for this darling freezer.

 

The new freezer is a 3.8 cubic foot chest freezer and it holds a lot!  I am impressed.  After loading it with my last Butcher Box order I had a ton of room leftover.  I was able to add some salmon fillets and a couple chicken breast halves I got on sale at the local Safeway.  They fit perfectly in the two hanging baskets along the top.

 

I still have loads of room so now I can plan my next Butcher Box order as well as take advantage of any sales I happen across without worry of where to store things.  Now I can use the freezer on top of the fridge for storing frozen vegetables, butter, my flours, leftovers, frozen treats and to make ice.  For me this is the perfect setup.

 

This little freezer was exactly what I needed to start up a LTFS that is tailored just for me.  I am super excited about it.  Safeway had boneless skinless chicken breasts on sale for $1.27 a pound a couple weeks ago so I picked up two packages to vacuum seal and put away in here.  I’m going to have A LOT of fun rebuilding my new LTFS.  Hurray!
