Yeah, it looks just like my nanny's kitchen...my mom's mother.
She had a farm in Kentucky and we'd go visit pretty often. No running water or inside toilets; etc. You know the life...
And her kitchen always had some home-made bisquits sittin there on a plate! And some country ham; and pickles...you know...all that good stuff.
Yep, she had that very stove to cook on and heat with.
In the center of their house, in the main living room, was one of those iron pot-bellied stoves. Of course, after we ate lunch on Sundays, we'd go sit in there and get warm and then fall asleep!
I was preschool age then.
Later my folks sent me to "nanny's" farm to spend a week with my other cousins so we could see what it was like working on the farm! OUCH! Hard work!
Pickin up bales of hay and putting them in the barn is hard work.
Lots of good memories about that place and my dear nanny (of blessed memory, as they say.)
