Our cat, Bluenose, stalking the turkey leftovers. This was our new kitchen. My mother designed it. An island is the center of the kitchen. It had large with drawers for big stuff. There are two lazy Suzies. One you can see and a floor to ceiling to the left. The working counters were lower with a garage for her appliances. This kitchen was twenty years aheadof the time.
We did everything in the farm kitchen from playing cards, dinners, to laundry. My girlfriend was rather taken aback. All these activities were separate in her house. In her house laundry was done in the dark basement and meals were prepared in a tiny kitchen. But we rarely used the dining room. We watched TV in the living but the centre of activity was the kitchen.
