I have a 1953 Limited edition Norge fridge, the out side is white and this inside, is Mamie Pink, and Pink chrome! It still runs Great! Who thought that a single dress could dominate the color scene for a decade!

Our home has alot of what I call ‘Ethel pink’. She was the dear woman that loved this house as much as I do but her two color passions were pink and avocado…with the avocado being the ‘update’.
Since everything was in such good shape and high end when it was purchased, I could not see ripping it out. Anything that I have changed has always included a bit of Ethel pink or green in her honor.
It is funny, the neighbors still say…”She lives in Ethel’s house’.
