Wouldn't that be fun? I'm happy that the white chair struck a familiar and happy memory for you. This particular chair has been around for a long time, and has so many layers of paint on it (and years of grime from little hands), that I'm not sure what color it is supposed to be. I have wanted to strip it for ever, but somehow I can't bring myself to strip away all the years and memories of it just the way it is. It's just too special. Strange, huh? ((((HUGS))))) back to you!Pamela M.

So now that the tables are turned, he is becoming a wonderful helper. It's so good to come home and say, "What's for dinner?"...and know that there will actually be something there already! Such fun!

I have a tile that I found somewhere, maybe in Dad's garage--and a little framed picture of another "The Kitchen Prayer"<br />Lord of all pots and pans and things<br />Since I've not time to be <br />A saint by doing lovely things or watching late with Thee<br />Or dreaming in the dawn light or storming Heaven's gates<br />Make me a saint by getting meals and washing up the plates.<br />Although I must have Martha's hands, I have a Mary mind<br />And when I black the boots and shoes, Thy sandals Lord I find.<br />I think of how they trod the earth, what time I scrub the floor<br />Accept this mediation Lord, I haven't time for more.<br />Warm all the kitchen with Thy love, and light it with Thy peace<br />Forgive me all my worrying and make my grumbling cease.<br />Thou who didst love to give men food, in room or by the sea<br />Accept this service that I do, I do it unto Thee.Dorisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2756675007223295900.post-66741378066595442532012-09-29T22:34:39.752-04:002012-09-29T22:34:39.752-04:00I just love, Love, LOVE this post and the pictures...I just love, Love, LOVE this post and the pictures. Back in the day, the kitchen was the hub of the homefront. Growing up in an Italian family, the kitchen was where ALL the action was. My grandmother's house had a dining room, but we always seemed to enjoy gathering to cook, eat and talk in the kitchen most of all.<br /><br />The pictures of your kitchen are beautiful and it sure looks like such a welcoming place, especially the reading nook and the tea book shelf (loved that cute bear honey dispenser on your kitchen counter-- I have one of those in my kitchen, too!) <br /><br />Thanks so much sharing this and giving us all out here in bloggyville a peek into your home. <3<br /><br />Blessings,<br />PamPam Mannershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00040348748832876445noreply@blogger.com
