Count Me in With Matt Is the rattle the beginning of bearing noise? May I be so bold to inquire the source of excessive amounts of laundry requiring pressing and expect one would share? Maybe one operates an Inn, do one take in laundry or is one perhaps Martha Stewart lurking among our...

First things first Plug in to make sure there isn't a dead short. Before operating the machine fill it with enough super hot water to cover the pulsater to moisten the bellows underneath. After setting for a while look to see if any water leaked out which would indicate a brittle and broken...

1957 The electric version appears to be a 57 model placing it well before Teflon. What a cool color and cool design. It would have a year before the famous melting controls and backsplash of the Kenmore and Whirlpool of the the next year.

No Chicken for You My father didn't allow Chicken in the house so I experienced it in cooking school for the first time at 18. The butcher taught us an eight way cut removing the back bone and then cutting a chunk of breast meat with the wing so each piece was an equal weight and equal serving...

At Home I have three standby recipes I use. I'm not home for a week but when first diagnosed I wrote a cookbook for the kids. I'll call and have them read them to me so I can post them. They are easy, easier and easiest. Oddly the easiest one made with oil has the best date flavor.

Like Watching Birth Each one of us here had the same wonder and awe in finding this site. I didn't sleep for 72 hours reading and searching while posting like a drunken sailor. The group was very patient with me and now my closet friends in all of life are here. Good luck and happy reading. Kelly

Third Floor I didn't have a clear bowl so I chose one of Frankoma serving bowls.  I made the Trifle three layers high and will decorate on Sunday for the party.  Thanks a million Pete, this might be my new trademark dessert.

Operating Theatre Ready for construction

Half-Pint Angel cake from scratch on the right weighing in at 16 ounces, whiter cake, denser structure and moist.   Angel cake from a box on the left, more ivory hued, overly sweet and weighed exactly half as much at 8 ounces.

Jell-O Its really nice to have a hot tap for cooking.

Plasticity There are plastic filter versions that are everywhere.  The long neck chrome top filters are extremely scarce.  I have been offering up my soul for one for several years to no avail.  Scavenging old repair shops, salvage yards and thrift shops is the only hope. Kelly

High Level Summit I can scarcely imagine anything I would look forward to more than the three of us nestled in the decorations of your incredible house, finding our turn to talk when the other had a mouthful of crunchy straws that melt in our mouth. I can taste the yeasty richness of the...

Moving Experience Before we eat all the cheese straws, we should find someone who made prune kolaches or we'll be pretty uptight!

Cheesy Grin Where does the line form?  I have the ingredients on hand so I'll whip up a batch for Sunday.
