Neat Westinghouse Stove

[jmm63]

I recently catered an event for the Sisters of Christian Charity in Mendham, NJ ( NO... the walls did not bleed when I walked in!) It was a really cool old fashioned "nunnery". The kitchen we used had a really neat Westinghouse stove, but what was even more fascinating was the giant hall we were in had 3 service kitchens and all 3 of them had the same matching Westie stove... pretty neat!

You do know what Shakesphere was referring to when he coined the term "nunnery"?

Yes, he was more than likely referring to a brothel....but I'm referring to  the current definition of the word.

Nice find! Thanks for sharing.

Mine is a year older with white surface unit switch knobs. Three of the units are 5 heat and the left front is a Super Corox with an infinite heat switch. Were the lights still working behind the color wheels?

Your remark about bleeding walls reminded me of Einstein's reply to the Rabbi of a synagogue in Cumberland, MD who invited the scientist to join them for services when he was vacationing at Deep Creek Lake, "Despite being [regarded as] something like a Jewish saint, I have been absent from a synagogue so long that I am afraid God would not recognize me. And if He did, it would be worse."

Now THAT was a great quote!
