day eighteen

old stove


I saw this old stove this morning and I was drawn to it, I can just imagine how many meals it must have cooked, the food it has warmed, I imagined people gathering around it to prepare holiday meals and bake bread and cookies, now that it's role is over, it is being hauled away, to be refurbished and be a treasured antique, that is my hope

I love going to antique fairs and checking everything out. I like you always like to imagine who used the items and what their families were like.

Wow that is a pretty old stove, but I bet you can make it beautiful.

Oh, I would LOVE that old stove! I very badly wanted a reproduction Elmira stove, but Steve said $8000 for a stove was excessive. Men.
