We had a kerosene stove in the kitchen, closed off every other room except the upstairs bedrooms. We'd put our clothes close to the stove to warm them up before we shucked what we were wearing. We bathed in a metal tub in front of the stove. I was just little, so that was home, but yeah...I can imagine it gets a little old never feeling *warm.*Junehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11710135137635433217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-540716804487968042.post-855702392132863642009-12-04T07:59:26.447-06:002009-12-04T07:59:26.447-06:00Jenn... my heart is still shaky, I can cry at the ...Jenn... my heart is still shaky, I can cry at the drop of a hat or be happy. Yesterday was a better day... today is yet to be seen. :)<br /><br />threec's... isn't it funny some of the looks that you can get. Good for a laugh some days. I never knew that Salt Rising bread was so difficult... and it didn't help that I found out I needed to use cornmeal with the germ intact! ARGH!!!! <br /><br />June... if you lived in an old (160 year old) rock and concrete home with NO insulation you would dream of HVAC and warmth. :) There is just no amount of heat you can put in this place that will keep it warm during the winter. The kitchen is normally in the 40's of an AM until we get the oven going for a meal or bread.~ Sara ~https://www.blogger.com/profile/07020935202255828865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-540716804487968042.post-71081693137045425672009-12-04T06:11:04.894-06:002009-12-04T06:11:04.894-06:00You're wishing for central heat and I'm lo...You're wishing for central heat and I'm loving not turning mine on! <br />Smiling at strangers is a nice lift for both of us.

Here on the cranky, unfriendly east coast they look at me like I'm nuts and shake their heads and walk away....but I figure that I at least made them scratch their heads and wonder what was up with the weird lady. Sorry the bread was a failure. I have always wanted to make it, but never tried, because I heard rumors that it is extremely challenging.threecolliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05811004278088768813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-540716804487968042.post-45341246792114233052009-12-04T00:16:30.998-06:002009-12-04T00:16:30.998-06:00:) Your post made me smile.
