My New Stove!

We had Cameron Lovejoy, an unschooling friend, here the past two weeks working on the farm, and while he was here, he helped move in my new cookstove. Yay! I'm so pleased! It's obviously not hooked up yet—hopefully it will be by October. We still need to build a hearth, pipe it, and possibly plumb it as well, as it has a rear water reservoir for heating water.



Isn't it pretty? Makes my farmhouse kitchen feel complete, and I can't wait to cook on it this fall and winter.

A cook stove is on my wish list. Definitely a wonderful feature in a country kitchen.

I love the stove. It brings back great memories of my grandmother cooking on the black one she had. What I like about it so much is you can cook and heat the house at the same time.

Beautiful stove. I remember heating and cooking on a woodstove several years ago. I loved sitting a stew or spaghetti sauce on the back and letting it simmer most of the day. Have fun.

I guess it's my turn to ask, "Are you okay? We haven't heard from you in awhile. I know this is a busy time of year, but we miss you!"
At least that's the complaint I got from some of my readers on my blog.
I'd love to see how your pantry is doing. :))
