Crushed Ice
October 23rd, 2007 by Christie
For many years we haven’t had an easy source for ice, so we became quite content to just drink our water at room temperature.
But now that we’re living in a house where there is an automatic ice maker and dispenser, we are all getting quite spoiled at the idea of having cold drinks and even crushed ice!
I have found that at the end of a hard day of work, nothing is more refreshing than a cup full of crushed ice with some water to make it slushy. I slurp and chomp and wonder how I ever survived to my 37th year without this luxury before.
So, even when I’m peeved at the neighbors or feeling exhausted, there is a wonderful blessing waiting for me in the kitchen, available at the push of a button.
What are some of your small luxuries?

Mmmm, we just got a fridge with an ice maker recently (& with crushed!). I agree, no one realizes how much of a luxury that is until you get one for the first time. That has to be very near the top of my list. My favorite little luxury is my ironing board that Daniel hung for me about a year ago. It folds up into it’s own little cabinet with a place for my iron to sit on the inside. Love it!
