Goodbye, old friend

DSCF2277We have had you for about seventeen years, and moved from Oldham to Uphill; you have given us countless Christmas dinners, hundreds of cakes and loaves of bread, furnished us with thousands of meals from your two ovens, grill, gas rings and griddle… how many plates have you kept warm? Plates without number. You have seen us through birthdays, parties, dinners with friends and family. Our cupboards have been full of jam, marmalade, chutneys and pickles, our freezer full of pies and puddings. Our children have leaned to cook with you and bake with you and make their own meals.

But now, old friend it is time to say adieu and thank you!

    That’s a good looking stove! I’ve never seen that color over here in the US. Have fun learning your new one, may you get as many years out of it 🙂 xx

      Thank you… Moroccan lamb slow-cooking tonight! We have all sorts of colours, any you care to mention! There was a cream one but as our cupboards are cream we thought ti would be a bit too much.
