Thank you!!

ONLY if the outlet for the fridge is on a 20 Amp circuit.

You can't supply the counter-top outlets from a 15 Amp circuit dedicated for the fridge.

Agreed.

I put my fridge on the branch circuit that serves the baseboard outlets for the Kitchen, Dining, and hall outlet, since I do not want to have the fridge on the same branch as my counter outlets. That was just my choice, because of the number of slots I had, and knowing that at any point the GCFI breaker trips while we are gone, we do not want to come home to a warm fridge.

As for the two branch circuits, they can serve the Kitchen & Dining, not necessarily just the counter outlets alone.
