Winnie,
I know you have had a lot of rain but I am glad you aren't not going to get worse than rain.
Here a few photos of some more things I put out.

Thank you Sara! The truck with the hay bales belonged to my dad.
The mini boxes I picked up at the local thrift store. |

| Your hutch is pretty, it looks a lot like my mother's hutch. You are enjoying decorating, and that is good. |

I love the truck decorating, Denise. My Christmas decorating is Red Trucks. I am going to make - in SOME year - the quilt where you cut up stack-n-whack style 6 panels and use a 7th for the center. I'll find my bag of panels and post so you can see.
Right now my hutch is so cluttered I'm not sure if I will decorate in a theme. |

| Linda my mother's hutch is in my living room, but belongs to Baylee. She claimed it when she was three, and it displays her Nativity collection. Hopefully she will have a home and a place for it one day soon. |

This is my mom's hutch. I decorate it for every season. I have been thinking about painting but don't know if I can really bring myself to do it. It is not in bad shape. Just some nicks and things from use and moving over the years.
Linda, I have a little red truck that I am using for Christmas too. |

Yesterday I made a lot of progress getting my fall things out. The first photo is my old stove in the kitchen which I always love to decorate for the seasons.
Second is my faux fireplace area in my Log Cabin.
I plan to finish up this weekend. We have company coming for a short visit tomorrow morning but the afternoon is open and I can get finished while I do laundry. Whew it is in the upper 90s today and just plain miserable outside!!!!!!!!! |

| Is that a White treadle sewing machine in your second picture? It looks like the one with the mission cabinet. |

Winnie,
Your little stove and fireplace look wonderful with their fall decor! Fall decorations just seem to cozy everything up! |

Denise, do you remember the pictures you posted in October 2017?? I see them frequently. For some reason they come up. I love autumn and always enjoy seeing them.
Winnie I love your vintage cook stove in your lot cabin room, and also your fireplace. I would love to have a small wood cook stove for the corner of my living room. I want one that works so it can heat this end of the house, and also cook stew or soup on it. I know that is silly but... |

Marilyn,
I would have to go back and look at the posts to find those pictures. It's not silly to want to use a wood cook stove. It saves some especially if you are already using it to heat. I cook on mine sometimes. We have an electric stove so when the power goes out in the winter I can still make coffee and cook. |

Marilyn, nothing crazy to me about a wood stove in your home to enjoy and cook on!! I would love one too but we have two fireplaces that burn wood so that is a pretty good second. OK, here is a crazy dream. That little old stove in my kitchen is a gas one from the 1930s. Under the cover on the top are 3 good gas burners that are not rusted out. There is also a little oven below that is rusted out on the bottom back and cannot be used. Here is my dream. Find someone who knows how to restore the rusted out areas and make it ready to use again. I so very much dream about making Thanksgiving dinner on this little stove and baking bread in it every week, With just two of us now, I could easily use it as my main stove everyday if it was restored. The could outfit the gas attachments to fit onto the gas line that is currently in my kichen(I have a gas stove top range). However, I cannot find a reputable repairer of old stoves anywhere close to here to get an assessment that it could be fixed and a price for fixing it. So, no, your wish for a wood stove to use as heat and cook on is not unreasonable. MY desire to rehabilitate this old stove is probably borderline nuts!!
Here is my little stove all dressed up for Fall in 2009.

Winnie,
I know it is expensive as well as difficult to find some one to restore it. We had one in my grandmother in law's house and they wouldn't let us use it hooked up to the gas line. They said it had to do with codes and all. I've always dreamed of getting one from Lehman's or somewhere to use in my kitchen. I would get a gas stove so it wouldn't be wood burning but would still be good for power outages. As long as it was the top. The ovens usually have an electronic ignition on the gas ones now. The only thing is we don't have natural gas out here so we would have to get a propane tank for it. |

| Winnie I remember the stove my mother cooked on when I was four. It was as propane, but the oven was on one end of the burner area...It seemed to have a two story of double oven??? What I remember most was my sister was two, and began vomiting one day.Mother was getting ready to go to the washateria, but she realized my sister was in trouble, scooped her up in her arms and began to run toward the field, where my daddy was hoeing cotton. He had the car, had driven to the fields to ho e cotton. As she left she told me to keep the screen door latched and "Don't let Reed touch the burner knobs!" You see my brother had just begun to walk and he loved those dangly knobs on the cook stove. |
